Phil 2:13 For God is working in you, giving you the
Desire and the power to do what pleases him.(NLT)
My grace demands a renewal of the mind, a new way
Of looking and thinking about life. But the Revelation
Of Grace shows you that Christ has done all and is
The all of life. It leaves man to accept the fact he is
Helpless and that I made him that way. The helpless
Cannot draw from their own resources, for they have
None! But the Christian life, step by step, is seen as
Christ living within you through the Spirit. Quieten
The voice of the anxious soul and ponder this in your
Heart!
I am equipping you with expertise in areas you have no knowledge of. I am raising you up to the forefront in ministry I will take you forward. I will give you the expertise. I am bringing you into a realm of influence beyond your greatest expectations. I will open the doors. I will propel you forward. I have shown you things to come. I have given you a glimpse of what is to take place. You have seen dimly, but I am about to open your understanding to avenues of ministry you have not perceived. I will put you in touch with those who need to be reached. The ministry will take place through a network of willing workers.
2Pe 2:2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
1Ti 4:10 For therefore we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.
Rom 12:3 For I say, through the grace given unto
me, to every man that is among you, not to think [of
himself] more highly than he ought to think; but to
think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every
man the measure of faith.
These are but the reminders that you are living
soberly! It
is only the helpless that rest in Christ and live His life
in their human lives. You were created to be the
weak and inadequate person that you feel yourself to
be, in order that you might draw upon Christ your
strength and life.
Embrace your feelings of
helplessness and inadequacy; reject any ideas that
you can live the Christian life by drawing on your own
strength or keeping rules set up by your particular
denominations. You must rest in the final truth that
Christ is the Christian life and your only strength to
please Me, says the Lord. A man sober in spirit, feels
his weakness and the pressure of his circumstance,
but also the strength of the Lord that is his through
covenant union. By faith you move from your
helplessness to the total adequacy of God. By faith
you overcome the hoards of hell and this present evil age.
Faith My child, Reaches out beyond the need and into the supply. You must remember that My supply is always more than the need. Know also that in the Spirit there is no time, and that for which you wait is already given and only awaits your receiving.
"Preparations"
July 25, 2006
My child,
You must be able to collect yourself...to take time to absorb what I am revealing to you. To be freshly filled finely tuned with the Spirit will bring guidance, direction and wisdom and the will to do My bidding. The purpose of spending time with Me is more than enjoying My presence, it is to fit you for the labors which are before you. So come as I have invited you to do so often, with heart open, and up lifted hands. Don't bring me your works...bring Me yourself! It is you that I love and not your works. Bring Me a heart ready to learn and to be directed and I will show you a heart prepared for the operations which are set before thee.
"Give & it shall be given"
July 24, 2006
My child,
Disappointments bid you to grasp, preserve, and save that which is beyond your powers to remedy. Blessings however, are released when the soul of a man is content with nothing of earthly value. The spirit is prepared for worldly success only after it has learned to care nothing for it. I will fill the surrendered hands of worshipping men, but the anxious grasping hand will forever be empty. Learn to leave your destiny in My hands of love and wisdom. Nothing ought to concern you but the health of your soul and the outflow of your life in the Spirit. Man sees himself as successful when he has much income, but, I see a man as successful when he gives himself away in service for that which is not repaid in worldly goods. My child, your soul will experience freedom when you seek nothing of your own and learn to give all to follow Me. Then shall I bless you with increase and only then will it not impoverish your spirit.
"Teaching Savior"
July 23, 2006
Luk 12:12 For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say.
My child,
My Spirit will teach you all things, but you must be
pliable and learn quickly if you are to be used in
these last days. Deception abounds! Blindness and
destruction walk together. My Kingdom is a kingdom
of light and clear purified vessels will be the
transmitters of My glory in a darkened world. Life is
fleeting, and the rewards are sure. The end is in My
hands; the preparation is in yours. From every place
My words are spoken, Light goes forth into the
hearts of men. As you learn of Me, The light of My
Spirit shall be seen in the spirit of My people and My
people shall recognize My presence within you. Listen and Learn! There is much yet that I need to teach you!
"Refreshing is waiting for you"
July 21, 2006
Psalm 23:1 The Lord is my shepherd; I have all that I
need.
2 He lets me rest in green meadows; he leads me
beside peaceful streams.
3 He renews my strength. He guides me along right
paths, bringing honor to his name.
4 Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I will
not be afraid, for you are close beside me. Your rod
and your staff protect and comfort me.
5 You prepare a feast for me in the presence of my
enemies. You honor me by anointing my head with
oil. My cup overflows with blessings.
6 Surely your goodness and unfailing love will pursue
me all the days of my life, and I will live in the house
of the Lord forever.(NLT)
My Children,
Come to Me when you are weary and tired in your
battles, I will renew your energies and give you
fresh zeal and new courage. I will not fail thee, for
in
your hour of need I will surely undertake for thee! I
will not disappoint thee! I will support thee, comfort
thee, and will keep thee from all evil. You are tired
My children, because you carry the burdens that I
long to lift.
Your enemy has succeeded through life distractions
and worn you down by directing your attention
toward an apathetic and sinful world. But though
the darkness press about thee, I will give thee peace
and rest if you will but come and lay these burdens
at My feet. I will be a balm for your weary head and I
will regulate your thoughts and give you perfect
peace, and yes, I will guide thee in all wisdom. I am
able to guard you against selfish desire, rebellion,
and unsanctified ambitions which force you like
slaves till your hands fall at your sides in hopeless
despair.
Tarry not for a more opportune time to be alone with
Me. Take it though you have to leave the task that
call to you by name, for nothing will suffer as you
give Me place during your busy days. Turn and
whisper My
name My children, though you
be battle weary and sore from your struggles. Draw
near to Me with thine full heart, pass through the
death
gate of self will and cast all that troubles thee upon
Me. For no turmoil of soul can persist when brought
under the influence of My peace and bathed in My
love. In thy
patient waiting, I will restore all the enemy has
stolen from you. Refreshing is waiting for you, so
find moments with Me all through the day. I will
liberate you from those fleshly obsessions that have
ravaged you, and I will infuse you with new
determination to finish the race which lies before
you.
"The Promise of Sunny Days"
July 20, 2006
Psalm 126:5 Those who plant in tears will harvest with shouts of joy.
6 They weep as they go to plant their seed, but they sing as they return with the harvest.
My Child,
There shall be with a certainty sunnier days. But the days of testing always precede the days of triumph. I say to you, triumphs shall come to all those who faithfully continue and turn not back in times of testing. As it is written " weeping may endure for a moment, but joy cometh in the morning. Endure Hardness as a good soldier and only then shall you be counted worthy to receive a reward in the day of victory.
"My Ambassadors"
July 19, 2006
Joe 2:5 Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array.
My Children,
I have made you to be free from all forms of condemnation and every fearful spirit. I have filled you with the Spirit of power, love, and sound disciplined mind. You are free from want and lack as you continue forward in faith, for I have liberally supplied for your every need and I have blessed you with every spiritual blessing. Yes, and I have made you steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord. My words have increased your faith and made you strong, now edify one another and minister grace to others that I put along your paths.
Stand up and act upon the truths that I have given you. Walk confidently as My Ambassadors, unashamed, led by My Spirit. For truly I have made you the salt of the earth and the light of the world. Be about My business, Hold nothing back from Me. Let the fullness of My blessing penetrate your spirits and move through the sensitivity of your souls. I shall use you as My mouth pieces and I shall open new doors of opportunity before you as you say yes to My Spirit. Yes, I shall move you swiftly to do My bidding and I will remove every weight that you may run unhindered. Get ready to run! Get ready to speak! Get ready to be My Witnesses in ways you never thought possible. My children, I will surely give you what is needed for your your journeys and you preservation as you confess your need for My help in this respect.
"My blessing shall go with you"
July 18, 2006
Mat 10:13-14 And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you. And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.
My Child,
Move in and possess your inheritance, strengthen the saints and support one another in the Lord that you may be able to endure the times of testing. I will give you the strength to be My witness. You shall be a messenger of hope to those who are in despair, and you shall bear the word of faith to those who doubt. My Spirit shall be upon you , and My blessing shall go with you wherever you go.
"Warfare and maintaining or Victory"
July 17, 2006
Rev 12:11-17 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. Therefore rejoice, [ye] heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! For the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man [child]. And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood. And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth. And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
O My child,
You have crossed a bridge. Do not look back, but move ahead and press into the fullness of all I have prepared you for. Out of many varied experiences the soul gains knowledge and knowledge brings determination and determination, stability. It is vain however to battle the spiritual elements that seek to hinder you with the knowledge of the carnal mind. Only the man who is taught of the Spirit can war in the Spirit and prevail. My child, the enemy is constantly besieging you to hinder your progress and wear you down, but you are not left defenseless. You must take up the offensive weapons In My name reminding the enemy of your victory in the blood of Jesus Christ the Lamb of God! Remind The enemy of My faithfulness and testify of all the past victories that were yours in faith. Passiveness can never be effective. You must stand your ground aggressively because there is an aggressive enemy ready to rob you of all that is yours. Rise up and overcome Him in the authority I have given you. Do not give place to the enemy! Do not surrender a single thing to his aggressive attack. As you rise to the battles before you I will give you the victory and you will be more than a conqueror through Christ who strengthens you!
"My temple is not made with hands!"
July 16, 2006
My child,
I will build Me an house and fashion it with lively stones, Yes I will build My church and found it upon the rock and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it, neither shall one stone be moved from it's place, for I will dwell in the midst of My people and I will be glorified in them, sayeth the Lord. I delight not to dwell in temples made of brick and mortar, but My temple is made of living stones.
"Grace & Peace"
July 15, 2006
1 Pet 1:3 All praise to God, the Father of our Lord
Jesus Christ. It is by his great mercy that we have
been born again, because God raised Jesus Christ
from the dead. Now we live with great
expectation.
My Child,
As you journey through life see yourself as
generously sowing seeds of grace and peace
wherever humans are found. My Grace is not an
empty wish or a hope, but the undeserved
empowering presence of the Person of the Lord Jesus
with you here and now by His Spirit. He is enabling
you to fulfill all that He has called you to do and be.
Yes, the entire Gospel is contained in this word, it
defines how I have saved you and how you live the
Christian life day by day. All from beginning to eternal
end this is the gift. Beloved, I have made you My
covenant child and your sins have been covered
over. Now you can have peace within yourself,
knowing that you are the object of My love and the
years of shame are gone forever. This means that
peace emanates from you. Now bring peace to all the
lives you touch, including your enemies.
"A Call For Repentance"
July 14, 2006
Phl 2:14-15 Do all things without murmurings and
disputings: That ye may be blameless and harmless,
the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a
crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine
as lights in the world;
The Lord Says:
I hear the sound of a discontentment again among
you My people. Yes, I see that you have become
disillusioned that things are not the way that you
thought they should be.You are again angry... Like
spoiled children, simply because your expectations
have not been met.
You would change your world forcibly if you could,
but for the present you are directing your anger
toward others who have become your unfortunate
scapegoats. Your anger is not in angry outburst but
low talk in dark corners. You have sought out those
who would agree with your sinful positions! You have
involved the unknowing in your guiltiness, and made
them partakers in your sins. You have cast angry
looks in the direction the ones you are blaming for
the state of your affairs.
At the root is an unmet expectation of Me, and so
My love, goodness, power and wisdom, have all come
into question with you. You have become suspicious
of My motives but instead of outright blaming Me,
you have found a human being to heap your
dissatisfaction onto. I tell you, all of this springs from
Pride, you have taken the position of judge and jury
concerning the way others are doing things, you now
despise those you have chosen to blame.
With disgust you grumble, saying that you would
never say this or do that. My people have you
forgotten that you too are sinners..having been
forgiven that you need to forgive others their
trespasses? Your murmurings and debating has
produced for you an atmosphere which lacks love, an
atmosphere that borders on serious unbelief. Your
useless debates have produced doubt in My clear
words to you. I have taught you to love your enemy
and do good to those who despitefully use you and
forgive those who say all manner of evil against you
falsely. Faith cannot be mixed with ill will without
affecting your own souls.
Do not wear the ugly face of the flesh and the smug
look of the self righteous as though you have done
no wrong! In all of this you have become deluded,
with feelings that you are the righteous ones. My
people your all of this has a way of spilling over
into "all things" that you do. It is a poison that seeps
into every part of your lives and slowly destroys your
inner peace, joy, faith and certainly your love. You
have been deceived and you must repent quickly if
you are to see my favor and blessings restored!
"Proving Ground for Spiritual Conquest"
July 13, 2006
Col 3:16-17 Let the message about Christ, in all its richness, fill your lives. Teach and counsel each other with all the wisdom he gives. Sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to God with thankful hearts. And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father.
My Child,
Move with joy knowing that I am always with you. I am in every place you go! I am in the midst of celebrations as well as difficulties, triumphs as well as tragedies. Yes, I am with thee in business as surely as I am in worship. It is in times of testing that you are proven and made to learn obedience to My divine directives. Do not run from these testings in search of Me as though I were not with you or aware of every detail concerning you. For I have set up circumstances and have set you in the midst of them. You know the truth of My omnipresence, but you need to experience it more deeply. You must learn it more quickly because you are an example to others around you. My child, it is the work of the devil to pull down, to destroy, and to rob you of your trust and precious expressions of praise. I tell you prayer alone My child is not enough, you must determine in the battlefield of fiery trial that you are an overcomer and find a platform for victory. If satan cannot prevent you from finding a platform for action, he will try to make you think some other type of ministry would be more blessed. It is human to desire release from difficulties and discomfort, yes even to comfort the flesh, but the work of My Spirit is to redefine you according to My will and purpose and teach you all things. Therefore offer up all that I have entrusted to you and find the ever increasing sense of spiritual harmony as I breathe My life into that which you return to Me. Know that your obedience and vigilance combined with prayer will prevail and find victory in every battle.
Put me to the test!
Mal 3:10 Bring all the tithes into the storehouse so
there will be enough food in my Temple. If you do,
says the Lord of Heaven's Armies, I will open the
windows of heaven for you. I will pour out a blessing
so great you won't have enough room to take it in!
Try it! Put me to the test! (NLT)
July 12, 2006
My Child,
Greatness is hidden from the miserly, and his vision
becomes small through his own selfishness. To love is
to be generous, and generosity open the windows of
heaven, not only allowing Me to pour out My
blessings, but also granting the giver to look beyond
his human littleness to glimpse a bit of eternal glory
in the light of which all the treasures of earth are as a grain of sand. All revelation generates from love, because it is love that prompts such generosity. My child, he who saves his life shall lose it, and he who gives his life for Christ sake discovers that he has preserved that which otherwise he would have selfishly destroyed. To empty the heart of greed is to disengage the life forces from the destructive
bondage of selfishness and to free the soul into
liberty of the Spirit. Find a generous Spirit and find the demands of selfish flesh silenced.
"The Secret to Faith"
1Jo 4:16 And we have known and believed the love
that God hath to us. God is love; and he that
dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
July 11, 2006
My Child,
Have Faith in Me and Know that I love you beyond all
human comprehension. You have had sweet
fellowship with Me, You have set at My very feet,
and you have taken counsel at My at the sound of
My voice! Now I tell you to take My message to My
people. The message of My Kingdom is My
unconditional Love toward man. The essence of My
Kingdom, is faith in that Love, and for this reason I
have said what is not of Faith is a sin! For I have
also said Faith worketh by Love! The attack against
My Kingdom comes through the Father of lies, who
ask thee to consider a conditional love for
My people, and thus, cast a shadow over the work of
the cross, that the eyes of My children may not see
My love for them! I ask you to consider that all faith
starts with confidence in My love toward you. All
spiritual warfare occurs around the defense of this
truth. For there is but one intent in the mind of your
enemy and that being to make one doubt My love,
My Faithfulness and My care for My own. My
Message is far superior to any human expression of
it. But I tell you, I am a gracious Father who takes
the efforts of My frail servants and uses them to
change lives around them. Therefore, remind My
people that I love them and I am not angry with
them. In their faith and confidence in My Love, I will
not withhold any good thing from them. This My child
is the secret of all faith.
"Fear of rejection"
July 10, 2006
1Jn 4:7 Dear friends, let us continue to love one
another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves
is a child of God and knows God.
My child,
All Love is vulnerable, but in bringing you to maturity,
I must teach you to love as I love you. My love for
you bears all and will endure all things. I love you to
the extent that I give you the freedom to reject Me.
If I had held back from loving you for the fear of the
pain of being rejected, there would be no salvation.
Love is not My divine love until it is ready to be
rejected. Those I came to seek and to save have
repeatedly rejected Me.
My child, you cannot
give
yourself away in love while at the same time
protecting yourself from possible hurt and rejection
from those you are seeking to love. It is these fears
in you that hold you back from giving yourself away
to those I place in your path. As a dam holds back a
flood, so these fears hold back My love from pouring
through your life as it should.
Yet, I say, you are
learning, so do not despise the stumbling baby steps
as you begin to love in the strength of My Spirit. For
I delight and rejoice in your
every little step, however hesitantly they may occur.
Continue to reach out... continue to be My love to
every person I bring into your path. Yes beloved, I
am actively maturing you in My own divine love, and
be assured My child that I will accomplish this
purpose in you.
"Staying out of the "I / Me" house"
July 9, 2006
Mark 4:18- The seed that fell among the thorns
represents others who hear God's word, 19- but all
too quickly the message is crowded out by the
worries of this life, the lure of wealth, and the desire
for other things, so no fruit is produced.
My Loyal Child,
Be not divided in your heart, for many cares seek the
precious life and seek to pull you in many directions.
Each care is designed to isolate you, to take your
souls focus and rob you of spiritual fruit. These cares
if not resisted, seek to bring you to obsess over that
which disturbs your inner peace. Each lonely isolated
incident becomes a
vacuum that would suck everything into it. Such a
condition leaves you physically exhausted, dull of
mind and emotions and spiritually drained.
Those who clamor for your attention
as though you could save them,pick your fruit bare.
Must I remind you that there is but one savior and to
Him you must teach others to run, even as you have
been taught of My Spirit?
Again I say cut out all meaningless activity, you
may indeed have to cut away from certain people
which are draining your life, but not receiving My life
that you seek to give to them?
My child, I would replace your divided heart with a
single heart, a heart that seeks to be My Temple and
entertain My presence.
For all that is earthy calls to your senses and
distracts you from that which is sent of the Spirit.
Therefore, turn your focus from the "I / Me" house
and focus on being an inhabitable dwelling place for
My Spirit.
Let Me be the center of all your attention and I will
restore your inner peace of mind and give you divine
direction which shall prosper in the doing.
"I am your only source and your
supply"
July 8, 2006
Luke 4:5 Then the devil took him up and revealed to
him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
6- “I will give you the glory of these kingdoms and
authority over them,” the devil said, “because they
are mine to give to anyone I please.
7- I will give it all to you if you will worship me.”
8- Jesus replied, “The Scriptures say,
‘You must worship the Lord your God and serve only
him."
My child,
Do not faint, Do not forsake the way of
the Spirit for the ways of the flesh. Disappointment
awaits every soul not sustained by and in My love.
In all of your futile wanderings, I have never left you
or ceased to love you. I have never rejected you. I
have been with
you as you plunged down every meaningless pathway
and dead end street. I Am the unchanging One; as
I have been through all your life, so I am this day.
My love never falters nor does it change, it never
cools or turns away from you.
You My child, are
infinitely precious to Me and of worth far beyond any
currency of earth. My Son willingly died that you
might be Ours. Would I now abandon you because
you foolishly believe the lie that the answer to life is
outside of Me? Never draw from other sources My
child, for when you do, you rob the life force from
another, leaving him weaker and yourself deceived. I
am your only source and your supply. You have come
home to My love; never doubt it, but spend your life
and forever delighting in Me.
"Choosing to Believe the Unconditional Love of
God"
July 7, 2006
My dearly beloved child,
Every time you believe
and tell yourself that you are unlovable, that you are
of no worth and beyond the reach of My love and
delight, you are believing and establishing the lie of
Satan.
It is here in your thoughts about who you are and
the way you believe I look upon you, that all spiritual
warfare begins. In every moment you are faced with
the choice to believe or doubt My love for you.
Whenever you are put down or shamed by someone
or whenever the Law condemns you or Satan
accuses you, you have to make the faith choice
that what you are hearing is a demonic lie. At that
time you must choose the truth that I delight in you
and love you limitlessly and unconditionally.
My love for you is a constant and is not to be
reckoned by your own happiness or unhappiness. I
send everything to you in love. If you have
unhappiness, it is because you have wrong concepts
that are built in the doubts and the lie of the enemy.
Learn to properly discern My intention toward you
and never blame Me for your misery, for this is not by
My hand. Knowing that I love you at all times will
bring you comfort in times when you need it
most.
My command is that you rejoice in the Lord
always...and in all circumstances.
All of your victories begin by believing My love for
you. You bring down all the strongholds of darkness
by proclaiming the truth of My love for you in the
face of the lie that relentlessly tells you that you are
worthless and unlovable. Until you rest your weary
soul in My love, all the powers of darkness will walk
all over you and torment you. When you proclaim and
praise the truth of My love to you and all people, you
shine My glorious light into the darkness causing the
lie to fade into nothingness.
"Divine Protection"
July 6, 2006
1Pe 4:14-16 If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy [are ye]; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified. But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or [as] a thief, or [as] an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters. Yet if [any man suffer] as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.
My Child,
Many struggles lie in your path and many dangers along your journey. You will spare your soul by constantly reminding yourself that there is a power always working for your protection. There is always freedom from evil as you abide in Me. In times of calamity and great danger you may find perfect peace and complete safety within the Infinite Spirit of Holiness. Holiness brings it's own protection. The man who walks in holiness is surrounded by My light and My presence. In My light and presence is the power to dispel all forces of darkness and evil regardless of the form they may take. Stand up and claim your victory, your protection, your safety. Know that it is yours as you act in faith, not doubting, not retreating and not bargaining with the enemy who speaks to you of fear.
"The Unfailing God"
July 5, 2006
Zep 3:17 The LORD thy God in the midst of thee [is]
mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with
joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with
singing.
Beloved,
I have seen the deepest anguish of the prophet's
heart, that this free grace of God may fail through
man's apathy or insincerity. That the love of God
has
the same weakness which you have seen in the love
of man, that it too may fail to redeem. That you may
awaken and find that My ardor has cooled and that I
have somehow become indifferent toward man
because of evil, wickedness and iniquity. Awaken to
to My Word which says: Herein is love, not that we
loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to
be the propitiation (just substitute) for our sins.
Beloved, I am Love! Know that My Love never fails.
Failure occurs only among those who continue in sin.
This is against the very nature of My being and goes
against what I sent My son to do for mankind, to
seek and to save that which was lost! Have you not
read: "For God sent not his Son into the world to
condemn the world; but that the world through him
might be saved." All flesh faileth! But My Love faileth
not though all men despise it. For it is also
written: "Never! Can a mother forget her nursing
child? Can she feel no love for a child she has borne?
But even if that were possible, I would not forget
you! See, I have written your name on my hand.
Know that My grace and My mercy are intensified,
not in spite of, but because of the tensions of the
end times. I have spoken to you in times past...that
you think you know about My Love, but I tell you, My
love is moving in surrendered hearts, producing a
quality of dedication, zeal, and awareness
unsurpassed in the Holy men of old. Lift up your head
and see with eyes of faith the Ability of "The
Unfailing God." Watch as I ready a great army whose
faith works by love! Listen to the sounds of the great
army which shall go forth conquering and to conquer.
Have you not read where sin doeth abound grace
doeth much more abound? My great army shall go
out in the strength of the Lord and they shall stand
against an already defeated foe. All the world shall
know that they are mine because of the love I
produce in their hearts for one another.
"Maintaining Freedom"
July 4, 2006
Rom 6:22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
My Child,
You say, "my God has forgiven me, but why should he?" I say, keep your confession positive My Child! Wake up every morning and say, "I am the righteousness of God in Christ!" Teach your soul to war against all such contrary thoughts. Sins payment is complete and faith in the work of the cross is your freedom from works for righteousness. Therefore, hold to the Liberty wherein I have set you free. Allow no man to bring you back into voluntary subjection to thoughts or ways which are not God ordained, for then are you a slave to whatever thoughts control you.
Rejoice that I have given you liberty. No longer desire that which destroys this freedom! Know that I have loosed you from the enslaving chains of the world and it's religions. For the world and the religious brag about themselves and their works with empty foolish boasting, and with lustful desire they bait and lure back into sin those who have just escaped from sins bondage. These promise freedom, but they themselves are slaves to sin and corruption. From such I say, turn away. Keep your mind free from soul destroying influences, knowing that these deny the man of faith his personal dignity and freedom in Christ. So make sure that you stay free, and don't get tied up again in slavery to the law. Remembering that he who thinks himself to be justified in righteous works is freed from saving grace.
"I Can do all things through Christ"
June 30, 2006
Ecc 9:14 There was a little city, and few men within it; and there came a great king against it, and besieged it, and built great bulwarks against it: Now there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city; yet no man remembered that same poor man.
Beloved,
Why stand you amazed that My true prophets prosper not as other men in their obedience, nor have they strength to move apart from Me? Beloved, I am your sufficiency and by your own hands you can accomplish nothing. You must travel on your knees, feasts on My grace, move at My bidding, speak as I speak, and be carried in the strength of My Spirit.
I give to you strength according to the task I set before you, but I give it as you do the work. To hesitate is to become still more weak and withdrawn, for it is a sense of your own inadequacy that causes you to draw back and fear to move. This draws your attention to yourself; and because there is never sufficient power within yourself to do My work, any focus on your own strength or ability will soon persuade you that the task is impossible. My son, I have taught you that you can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth you! Apart from Me you can do nothing! I have not taught you self reliance, for all flesh faileth, but I have taught you in everything to look to Me, for I am your all in all. Through Me you can do all things! Turn now your attention from the weakened flesh and look to The Strength and The Provision of My storehouse, for I am Jehovah Jireh, your provider.
"Guidance & Protection from the way of destruction"
June 29, 2006
Beloved,
I always desire to help My children, but many pray too late; for by their own careless actions they have placed their feet in the slippery path, and the results are almost inevitable. Prayer at this point is like seeking guidance when the route has already been determined by self will and the destination is already in view. Do not act and then ask for protection, but stop before the decision is made and listen for My guidance. In doing so you will spare your soul much unnecessary anguish. Many a soul is placed in jeopardy by the folly of self direction. Pray for My wisdom and My grace within you will cause you to find protection from the way of destruction.
"One With God"
June 28, 2006
My child,
I did not create you to live independently of Me, but completely dependent upon My strength and My guidance. We are one in life and movement. Only as you remind yourself of this will you walk in perfect peace. Your thoughts of the "God Over There" causes you much futile effort and anxiety. I am the strength of your mind and thoughts. I am the strength and peace of your emotions. Be still My child during your storms of life. Center your thoughts of the God who abides within. Realize My presence with you at all times, and when frustrations abound and questions assail your thoughts, learn to draw your focus to Me, and at every point of every need and realize I am your life, Your power, your sustaining strength. Realize that I am always with you. I am your Creator, your Father, I am one with you by My Spirit. I am the very source of your life. Purpose to acknowledge Me, I will direct you in the daily path and guard your every step.
"The Source of True Strength"
June 27, 2006
Gen 49:24 But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty God of Jacob; (from thence is the shepherd, the stone of Israel:)
My Child,
There are areas in your life in which you are well acquainted with your own weaknesses. In those areas you find it much easier to accept My strength. In other areas you perceive yourself to be strong and self sufficient and therefore do not feel the need for My help. My child, your human strength is flesh. However strong your human strength may appear, it has a point where it collapses into weakness. Knowing this you insist on wrestling within yourself to fulfill My commands in the strength of the flesh. I tell you again this is not possible. For what is Spirit is Spirit, and what is Flesh is Flesh! Therefore, bring to the cross your known and proven weaknesses so that you may be a partaker of My divine nature and strength and receive unto yourself Grace for your times of need. Bring to death on the cross what you perceive to be your natural abilities and strengths so that the flesh might not glory and rob you of your heavenly reward. For My glory cannot be seen in any area where you are trusting in your natural abilities or strengths. Therefore, take to the cross your weaknesses that you may rise in Me and in the power of My might. Remember My child, only when you choose the truth that you are weak are you truly strong in My strength and I will never command you to do anything that is beyond the limits of My Spirit within you. Rest in the Spirit of Christ within you. Live now in the expectancy of faith that in every situation I will be your strength and your sufficiency to fulfill all things and nothing through Me shall be impossible.
"Terms of Endearment"
June 26, 2006
Mat 11:27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and [he] to whomsoever the Son will reveal [him].
My Child,
I did not call you to merely know about Me, but to know Me as your intimate Friend, One who unconditionally loves you. I am the infinite Person that can never fit into your finite mind. I am the unpredictable One who cannot be confined to your finite filing systems. Indeed study Me and fill your mind with the knowledge of Me, but never forget that you are called to a love relationship with Me and not a mere gathering of facts that puffs you up with spiritual pride. I have called you to enter fully into My love for you and to respond in loving worship. The intimate knowledge of Me is not the reward for the most studied, It is My love manifest as My Spirit shines The Light upon My Word and reveals My truth to you. It is then that you see Me behind every word in My Word ...waiting to make Myself known to you. Never forget that flesh and blood is not capable of revealing Me to you. Knowing Me is the gift of My love to you, and the gift My Spirit delights to bestow and is always accompanied by My joy. When your eyes are opened to truly know Me there is necessary rejoicing and gladness in your heart, spontaneous songs of praise, and a delight in Me that is accompanied by a yearning desire to know more of Me. If what you learn of Me does not cause your whole being to dance, then only your head has studied and the eyes of your heart are still blind. You must learn to measure your true knowledge of Me by your dancing heart.
"Ordered of The Lord"
June 25, 2006
Isa 45:2-3 I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron: And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call [thee] by thy name, [am] the God of Israel
My Child,
It is in Me that all things hold together; apart from Me your life disintegrates into chaos. I am the hub and all the persons, interests, and events that make up your life are the spokes of the wheel. I bring harmony to your life putting each part in its proper place instead of each part pulling to be that center.
I alone am your point of integration; all other centers are false and ultimately will fall apart and fail to be the anchor that holds you in the storm. I am He who connects the disconnected parts of your life that seem to belong nowhere.
I am the magnet of love that draws all parts and broken pieces of your life together into one cohesive whole. When you center your life into Me you will find that your entire life falls into place and there is harmony.
"Daily Bread"
June 24, 2006
Act 2:46-47 And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart, Praising God, and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.
My child,
You worry and fret because you seek solutions to your problems without reference to Me, as if I did not know or love you. It is not in your hands alone to control the flow of money, food, clothing, and shelter. It is in these everyday matters that you must learn that that I know you My child.
It is here that you must abandon yourself to Me, sharing it all with Me, trusting me and following My lead. I know each piece of clothing that hangs in your closet. I know each item of food in the refrigerator. I know what is owed on your mortgage and what you have to pay to every creditor this month. I know every penny that is in your bank account. I know the clothes and the shoes that the children need next month. I know you and watch over you in love.
Rest My beloved child in My total knowledge of you and My presence with you. It is I who provide your daily bread, all your sources of income are My outlets that bring you My supply. I am your Father who supplies all of your needs and blesses you in My time and My way. Let the paying of the bills, the making of a budget, the buying of food and clothes be a celebration of My love and care for you, a time of trust in My love. Rest I say, be secure in My love that knows you with perfect knowing.
"Deceitfulness of Riches"
June 23, 2006
Mar 4:19 And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.
My child,
Beware of Mammon, the subtle temptation to put your trust in money. Be on your guard lest money takes the place of supreme importance in your life. Beware when you rejoice in its presence, lest you believe that it is money that gives you power to achieve whatever life demands of you. The sense of safety and power that it gives you is deceiving for even as you celebrate that you have it, at the same time, you feel afraid and restless in case it leaves you while you sleep.
My child, if you trust in money you will spend the rest of your days worried either because you do not have it, or fearful that although you have it you may soon lose it. My passionate love for you is your true wealth My child. Trust in Me for I am not fickle, I will never leave you or forsake you; you will never wake up to find that I have left in the night. Trust in Me; do not focus on the needs, nor on the money to fill it, but on Me your Provider, I am always your abundant supply. You talk much to Me of your need, it is time to talk to your need about Me and My infinite supply.
It is I, not money that watches over you without ceasing; I never forsake you and I meet all of your needs. Enjoy your money My child, but hold it lightly; it is My gift, a tool I use to achieve My purpose. Do not be so foolish as to trust and rejoice in My tool and forget Me the Giver.
"Abundant fullness"
June 22, 2006
Hbr 12:28-29 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: For our God [is] a consuming fire.
My Child,
I am always with you and I am intimately acquainted with your needs; My love delights to give you the grace in abundance for all that the journey demands. Do not dwell on the need in any area of your life, but rather see it as the signal that My abundant fullness is approaching.
"Walking in Newness of Life"
June 21, 2006
Rom 6:4-8 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also [in the likeness] of [his] resurrection: Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with [him], that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. For he that is dead is freed from sin. Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:
Rom 6:11 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
My Child,
I am not locked up in the pages of history, but I walk with you in every detail of your daily journey. I am alive in you and because I live, you live also. The sin that brought death into the world I have carried away. The Law that condemned man is satisfied and will never be able to point its condemning finger at you again. Satan is forever beneath My feet, defeated forever, and you My beloved are in Me. Therefore you are a partaker in My victory and sin shall never have dominion over you again. I did not die and rise out of death alone. You died with Me and we rose together. My Child, you now live in the power of My unending life. Awaken from your drab religious slumber. Celebrate that in this moment you are sharing My death conquering life. You are no more part of this world than I am. You are in the world but not of it, a stranger passing through... radiating My glory into the darkness. In and through you I am present to this moment of time where you are. I am your strength to accept every challenge and walk into every opportunity. I am your answer in every temptation, your comfort in every sorrow, your patience in every frustration and your wisdom at every crossroad.
"Remove This Cup"
June 20, 2006
1Pe 2:21-22 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
My Child,
Do you not remember that I was tempted in all points like as you are? That I cried to the Father that the cup of suffering be removed from Me? Beloved, acknowledge that I share your life by offering Me your pain, your despair, and your fears without shame. Although you feel overwhelmed with weakness today and even despair of life at times, know My child that it is in these moments that My power is protecting you from all evil.
Draw your sustenance and strength from Me. Give to Me your despairing thoughts, as you do, My joy will swallow up your pain, My wisdom will guide you through your confusion, My strength will cause you to walk with confidence and My realized presence will fill you with joy.
Throughout Scripture, joy is looked upon as the aggressive weapon that hurls back the darkness and reveals My kingdom in every situation. Therefore Beloved, know that in every breath you are taking, My presence is with you and in you, My eye is upon you delighting in you to do you good. My love enfolds you whatever feelings you may have to the contrary churning within you. In the logic of your flesh there can be no hope, but My Grace is sufficient for you and soon you will know the fullness of it as I bear you up in My loving hands and you access the joy center that is within every believer.
"I am in the midst of the storm"
JUNE 19, 2006
My Child,
Why do you spend so much time berating yourself over what might have been? I am not with you in the non existent "might have been". I am with you in the harsh realities and challenges of this moment. Stop living as if your five senses will give you answers for your present troubles and circumstances. To live only in the information given by the senses is to live in torment and anxiety. You will find no answers living in thoughts of "what could have been" and "if only I had". This is reality... I am with you, which means you will have answers even though at this moment it is not yet answer time. The spirit sees ultimate reality... the presence of God with you in the midst of whatever is happening to you at the sense level.
There never has been, nor will there ever be a moment more fitting for Me to reveal My life to you than at this moment. Listen My child; this moment, just the way it is, this is the place of My choosing for you to abide in Me and be conformed to My image. Sighing over the past and looking for future days when you believe the situation will be better suited to give Me your undivided attention, has robbed you of months of the conscious enjoyment of My presence, love and care.
The events of this hour are not obstacles standing in the way of you fully enjoying My love and the receiving the expressions of My life to you. It is in this moment My child, that My life and glory are to be displayed in and through you. I am with you in this moment, therefore do not be frustrated but embrace Me and through Me take hold of the moment as the opportunity to fully experience My love and to reveal My life in your reality. Begin declaring in joyful thanks and praise that here, in this moment. I am with you giving you My strength and working out My love purpose in these circumstances that you find yourself in. I reveal My life in you and through you in this moment, not in the fantasies of another time.
"Healing Grace"
June 18, 2006
Hbr 4:15-16 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as [we are, yet] without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
My Child,
Do you believe you should be a one man army performing only your triumphs before the watching and wondering church? "No, a thousand times no!" When you pray, gather up your brothers and sisters in your prayers. In so doing, you will become the extension of My love to them. Yes, you will become My uplifting hands in the weary brother or sisters life. You are the Body of Christ, not a group of isolated individuals who believe a few truths in common. Your prayers should begin "Our Father" and not "My Father." My life was given for you to share with others, not to be held onto or hoarded. Therefore, be ready to come alongside battered believers, weeping with those that weep. Stake yourself to them in prayer and any practical way necessary, and together lift each others burdens away.
My grace comes to those who are ready to admit that they have need of it and ask for it. My child, the burdened believer needs to hear this more than anyone. For many believers are willing to bear others burdens, but the burdened are ashamed to admit to others that they are tired in life that they are ready to collapse. Pride causes them to want to have the image of the one who overcomes in every battle with help from no one.
Yes, many of My children want to receive My grace in secret so that no one knows that they needed it! They wish to appear as the one who is ever strong, never in need, always overflowing with divine strength. This is pride and will keep them from receiving healing grace. For this reason I have set up My church to need each other and receive My love and grace through each other. You are the conveyers of My grace to each other. So My child, today as you pray, gather your brothers and sisters around you, confess your own need of healing before them. In your humility, others will find boldness to ask for grace and be healed also. In this way you will become the extension of My healing hands to those who need it most, My wounded warriors.
"Ever Present Supply"
June 16, 2006
Psa 118:8 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.
My Children,
You are not being carried about on winds of fickleness, but on the soft breezes of My faithful love. You were awakened in My Spirit today, being made ready to experience all of life within Me. Life My little ones as It is meant it to be! A life of faith and trust in the very anchor of your soul. I am with you, I am guarding you, I am closer to you than the very breath you take. Though you may not always perceive Me, I am always with you. I love you without limit or condition. I have committed Myself to you with a covenant oath, swearing by myself never to leave or forsake you. Therefore, do not despair at your own human frailty or lack, for you are to act out of a different reality; that being, I Am your strength, I am your supply, I Am all around you, for all of life with its circumstances takes place within My embrace.
Your awareness of lack or your awareness of need is the joyous signal for you to look with expectancy to Me for the supply. It is only in times of apparent need that My strength and supply are made manifest to you. So My children, learn security in Me when there is no visible evidence of tangible presence or provision. Learn in every situation to see beyond your on feelings, with eyes fixed upon the greater truth, that which is larger than any circumstance.
Do not be filled with dutiful anxiety weighing ill with good, whether real and imagined. Do not stumble through your day with eyes closed to the reality of My presence, perceiving yourselves to be alone and therefore terrified of the events and people that populate your days. I am not a God who is disinterested or afar off. You do not need to beg, bribe or manipulate Me into the situations of your lives. Stop! Be still! Center yourselves within this Truth... Then walk through your day in genuine faith, readied in Me and My ability to do My will. Not because you perceive that you are adequate for the task or that you have the supply to accomplish it, but walk forward knowing that I who work in you the desire to do my will, am also your constant unseen supply to do it.
"There is one body, and one Spirit"
June 15, 2006
Mat 11:25-26 At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes. Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy sight.
My child,
Call upon My Spirit that you may see all My beloved children through My eyes. Open your eyes and see Me in them, open your ears and hear My words on their lips. Learn to receive My strength through their ministries. For Me to love you does not mean that others are forgotten. For you to possess My fullness does not mean that others are deprived. My child, I have no favorites. I love all of My children with limitless and unconditional love. As you rejoice in My love for you, be aware that the same love is poured out on all My children. Do not concentrate on their weaknesses, immaturity or faults, for I unconditionally love them, just as I love you. You are joined together with countless multitudes that make up My Body in the earth. My church is made up of men, women, and children from all walks of life, and I shall gather them into fellowship with one another according to My purpose. You are not to be an individual cut off from all My other children, but are to experience My love united with them. Ultimately you cannot know the fullness of My love apart from them. Humble yourself My child and know that your life is bound together with theirs. Often My words of love to you come through them; My strength is ministered to you through their love. Therefore, receive what I give to you through My weakest and dearly loved children. For as it is written: There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; One Lord, one faith, one baptism, One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. Eph 4:4-6
"Staggerless Faith"
June 14, 2006
Rom 4:19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara's womb: He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform. And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.
My child,
There is an urgency in your heart to complete and fulfill that which was prophesied over you. Know that I am not forgetful nor have I put off answering your prayers! In order for a miracle of My making to take place, I have deliberately delayed! What you may think is My neglect will work together for your good and My glory. I have not abandoned you. I am deliberately being silent that your faith in Me might be drawn out and matured to the point of naked trust. When I answer it will be with My planned miracle and it will leave you speechless.
"The Grace of all sufficiency"
June 13, 2006
Mat 11:28-30 Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
My Children,
When you try to achieve anything apart from dependence upon My grace, it becomes a burden and a chore. Yet many of you still struggle in the futility of the flesh to live for me. This you do apart from the knowledge that I am "The Residing Power" of all life, and I am the only director for My own will concerning you. My little ones, any attempt in the flesh to please Me is an attempt at the impossible? You through the strength or intellect of the flesh can do nothing of eternal value. But here I stand at the end of a weary path to remind you, that I am in you and you are in Me. It is through My power that you live and through My omnipotence that you move and have your being. It is from My indwelling presence that you receive divine direction according to My will. I delight in you My Children, and My acceptance of you is without limit. My acceptance is never predicated upon human efforts, but your faith in My sufficiency. You please Me when you live for Me by living from Me. Rest in Me My Children, let Me be the source for all your actions, for this is My great desire concerning you. Become ever aware of My love for you, and draw your life from My life within. In this union of your spirit with My Spirit, the burden that comes from the futile effort of trying to live for Me falls away, it is replaced by everlasting joy and rest. When I had finished My creation I sat down to rest from My labors, When My Son had finished all that I had ask of Him on your behalf, He also joined with Me in this rest. All of this My children was to free you and to give you rest from the futility of doing the endless task of producing rejected fruit. Now enter the rest of knowing that you are completed In ME! You are accepted in My Son! You are directed by My Spirit! Know that I have planned ahead for you My children! This is the Grace of all sufficiency! The Joy of being partaker of the divine nature. Come sit with Me in heavenly places and share in the rest that is yours now!
"Living Stones"
June 12,2006
Ephesians 2:20-22 "…having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone in whom the whole building, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit."
My Children,
You are a part of My Church, a living stone in the building in which My Spirit is pleased to dwell. You, along with all the other stones' in My Building share in My resurrection life. Therefore, Do not forget that you and all the other stones have been exhorted to lay aside malice and the whole list of ugly sins that hang over from the old life. Those I join with you are believers who are on the same journey toward conformity to the image of Christ. Together with them you are to hear My Words from the lips of one another and in process of laying aside the old, put on Christ. Commune together remembering what I have done for you, then go out into the world knowing that with all the other living stones you are in the world but not of it.
"Abundant Life Provisions"
June 11, 2006
My Son,
This is what I desire to do for you in this day. I desire to pour out such a blessing you will not be able to contain it all, for I am opening the windows of Heaven and raining down upon you refreshing. You will bask in My goodness when you see that I have heard the cry of your heart and met every need. This is My will and purpose for you, that you might experience an abundant supply of good things, that these might be manifest in your midst. Trust Me to make all the connections, to put all things in order, into rightful place. Trust Me to meet the deepest desires of your heart.
"A Love That Never Fails"
June 10, 2006
Eph 3:17-21 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all saints what [is] the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God. Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him [be] glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.
My Children,
Put your trust completely in Me and do not waver. Everything you need is available to you. JUST ASK! Every promise is sure and is held in the power of My love. Though it may at times be beyond the scope of your understanding, My ways are perfect. My Love goes beyond the scope of all human comprehension. Yes, I am able to love through you, those who you would otherwise find it impossible to love. Therefore I say to you, release those things and persons that burden your heart into My very capable hands. Be confident that I WILL handle them with the greatest of care. Has My love for you taught you nothing ? Do you suppose that I would fail you, that I would leave you or your families in turmoil and distress? My Children, All things are in perfect harmony with My plan and purpose. Soon you will see it! Turn away the voices within or without which would cause you to struggle with My faithfulness, but believe My promises!
Look again at My Words:
But without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and [that] He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Hbr 11:6
There failed not ought of any good thing which the LORD had spoken unto the house of Israel; all came to pass. Jos 21:45
My children, My promises are to all who believe. Know that My ways are higher than yours, that I will even bring your wandering children home. Yes, I can still take a heart and life and completely transform it. This is not too difficult for Me. Did I not do this for you? I am a faithful Father. I love the whole world! Can any one of you say this of himself? I cannot fail you and I will not disappoint you! I will give you the very desire of your heart, even the transformed lives of your children. Yes even they will serve Me wholeheartedly. This is My promise to you, that I shall raise up each one of your children and bring them into My counsel and into communion with My Spirit and I shall use them to lead others in the way of Truth.
"The Extravagant Work of Unconditional Love"
June 9, 2006
2Ti 2:13 If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.
Gal 5:5 For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith. For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.
Luke 7:44-48 And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped [them] with the hairs of her head. Thou gavest me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet. My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment. Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little. And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven.
Mat 6:31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? Or, What shall we drink? Or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? For after all these things do the Gentiles seek: for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
My Children,
I know that you are perplexed and often you feel the bewilderment brought about by your flagrant violations of My unconditional love. Your moral religious flesh is shocked to find My mercy and not condemnation for your many improprieties. Yes, you may even feel awkward, even at times embarrassed, as you recognize that I love you and delight over you with all your faults still bearing. But I say, until you have come to feel without shame your unworthiness, and stand in awe that I should love even one of you, you do not know anything of My love for you.
Yes, you have been like a roller coaster from the up and down feelings and human logic that denies and doubts My love for you. You have listened to the sneer of the accuser of the brethren which tells you that I could never love someone as evil as you. You are forever from medicating your flesh to thoughts of self condemnation, Yet My children, I say it is time to let your extravagant faith arise and call your inner self to order. Command your own obedience to My love by the power of My Spirit within you. Submit to My love... for this is how faith works. Let your faith in My unconditional love rise to the point of taking a deliberate stand against your own feelings. Declare out loud My love for you, even though your flesh wars against such a thought. Declare it out loud My children, because I have revealed that is the way I Am and to that revelation choose to submit your entire being.
When you understand My matchless unconditional love, your heart will no longer fail when things do not work out according to your plans; nor will you wilt before the cost of doing My will. In this you will discover that if it is My will that you have something, then you will have it, this is an accomplished fact. You will always have what I want you to have and you will have it when I say. My children, I give to you out of My unconditional love and not on the basis of any human merit. So enter the rest which is My faithfulness and My Love. Relax; be still, and be at peace, for I am God and your Father, and you the children, beloved of My heart. Let the cares and worries go, let My love, joy and peace wash through you and complete you.
"On Giving Wisdom to the Ungodly"
June 8, 2006
1Cr 2:13-16 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know [them], because they are spiritually discerned. But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
My Children,
Be not shaken in your mind concerning those who hear notMy Words. For these are they which having been alienated from the life of the Spirit through sin and cannot discern that which is of My Spirit. For It is written of those: They have changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator. Because that, when they knew God, they glorified Him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
My Children, if they will hear Me they will hear you, but if they hear not Me, they will not hear you. For this reason it is written: Anyone who rebukes a mocker will get a smart retort. Anyone who rebukes the wicked will get hurt. "Don't give what is holy to unholy people. Don't give pearls to swine! They will trample the pearls, then turn and attack you. Throw out the mocker, and fighting, quarrels, and insults will disappear. My people, if you are wise and understand My ways, then live a life of steady goodness before others so that only good deeds will pour forth. And if you don't brag about the good you do, then you will be truly wise!
"More on Prayer"
June 7, 2006
1Cr 14:15 What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.
My Child,
Do not think of prayer as your supreme act of getting My attention! You have My attention without limit at all times. As you depend wholly on My grace to live and love, so depend in the same way on My grace to commune with Me. When you try to pray apart from dependence upon My grace this, the highest privilege, becomes a burden and a chore.
My child, understand that prayer is sharing with Me and the bringing of divine love to your brothers and sisters and to all mankind. Prayer is achieved in the Spirit! It unites your heart and voice to the Heart and Voice of My Son therefore, making you to become one heart and desire with Him as you make your petition to Me.
Ask My child for the gift I am ever giving, the grace that shall implant within you the desire to pray, grace that shall teach you what to pray for, and the compassion and strength to carry it through to conclusion. Then shall your joy shall be full.
"Prayer in the Spirit"
June 6, 2006
My child,
Know that I give you the grace by which you pray. Do not look at prayer as separate from any other expression of the life that you have in Me. You can no more find the desire or the will to pray from within yourself than you can find the ability to love with My love within your own emotions. You do not pray in your own name as if prayer originates with you, but in the Name of My Son. Your prayers are inspired by My Spirit; He it is who births the desires in your heart and prays in and through you and is within you the source of compassion for those for whom you pray. From beginning to end prayer is My gift to you My child.
"Our True Identity & Purpose Revealed"
June 5, 2006
Act 17:28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.
My child,
I am here with you from situation to situation revealing Myself to you. I listen for your cries and I know your thoughts, your dreams, and even your doubts. Even though you at times do not know who you are at times or what your purpose may be, be assured that I your anchor, I know you. Do you not know I suffered and died with your name in My heart? I am your Good Shepherd, and I have joined Myself to you in life! In Me shall you learn of your true identity and purpose. I know where you are, who you are, I know YOUR name and where you belong, even when you do not know and life seems to be filled with aimless routines. I have called you according to My will. My purposes are your purposes. Is it not written that the things I do shall you do also? Did I not tell you that as the Father hath sent me so send I you? And My Child, did I not also say that as I was in the world so shall you also be? Wonder not as the aimless who does not know why he was created.
My beloved child, your identity is not in others, whether their slurs and curses on your life, or in the hopeless ideals and ambitions others may have for you. Your identity is in Me. Even if no one else knew you, I know you and call you by name. You are mine, the child of My delight! I am the one that fashioned you in your mother's womb and I shed My blood upon the cross for you. I sent My Spirit to fill your heart and now I am with you to lead and direct your path. Therefore, turn away from other voices concerning you and turn to Me, the author and finisher of your faith. Other voices may introduce disharmony, confusion, and even misdirection, but I, even I, will lead you in the sure path and give to you everything you need concerning life and faith. Learn to delight yourself in Me again, reveling in My love for you. Know that your identity is not here or there, in this person or that pursuit, but in Me. Accept your identity in Me and this will cause all other things and persons in your life to find their rightful place as well. As you rest and delight in Me so shall your true identity be made known to you more fully and your testimony shall have more impact those about you.
"Putting on the garments of Christ Jesus"
June 4, 2006
Rom 13:12-14 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the Armour of light. Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts thereof.
My Child,
It is not hypocritical to assume a behavior at My command, even though your feelings disagree. You may feel awkward and even uncomfortable with the these new behaviors for they are Spirit born. You are to no longer live at the dictate of your old feelings, but according to My will. You do not abide in your feelings but in Me.
My child, it is an act of faith, to put away from you all unloving acts and feelings and to deliberately assume behaviors of love toward those you do not like, or those who have hurt you. Forgiveness is never an act of feelings, but always the behavior that you must put on by the choice of faith. It is faith, when you will to act against the feelings of the old man, and put on acts of humility and kindness toward those I place in your path, no matter what their responses to you may be.
It is not hypocrisy to cast far from you behaviors that are not compatible with the new nature, the person you now are in Christ. Even though your feelings disagree and seek a means of justification, it is right to fling them far from you. These are past behaviors of the flesh and you must adopt new behaviors consistent with My Spirit within you. Although the power to live the life of Jesus is in the Holy Spirit, you are not a passive participant in the act of forgiveness. My child, in the Scriptures I tell you over and over to “put on” the behaviors of love, Put on Christ. Forgive because you have been forgiven.
As you believe the Gospel that My love has been poured out in your heart by the Spirit who lives within you, your faith should act in accordance with the promises and put on behaviors that only My love in your heart could perform. Put on the behavior that is compatible with the life of Jesus, and do it even though your feelings disagree. These new behaviors I have given you to put on, all fit you perfectly; they are the behaviors of your true self, all of them fit your spirit in union with Christ. As you put them on you are infused with the power of My Spirit and are carried forward in My strength.
"Our Companion"
June 3, 2006
My child,
I dwell within you, in the very heart of your true nature where nothing is hidden, nothing covered. It is there in the heart of your being that you are known to Me. This is where My love pours forth in unending stream to transform, to heal, to lead and to deliver you from your souls anguish. It is there that I am the Life of your life.
I am within you, your true center, the Source from whom you live. I am your Good Shepherd; I sought you and joined you in your personal state of darkness. Yes, I joined you when you were lost and I made your darkness and your fears My very own. I laid hold on the grief and sorrow that had been heaped upon you by others and made it all Mine so that you would never have to bear it again. My beloved put your broken heart into the wound in My side and find the heart that bore your sorrow and now gives its wholeness to you.
Many of My children do not understand this and so they struggle in futility to live for me, ever seeking to gain My approval, as if I were outside of them judging their actions, instead of inside of them their ever present life. We are joined in the Spirit, I am in you and you are in Me. I continue to live and love men and women through you, continuing to do the will of My Father on earth, implementing My victory over the darkness. Dare to look into My face My beloved and know that in your fellowship and friendship I see the travail of My soul and I am satisfied. Revel in the fact that all of this I have accomplished for you!
"Roots of Confusion"
June 2, 2006
1Cr 14:33 For God is not [the author] of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.
2Cr 5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
My children,
Have you fully yielded your will to Me? Today many of My children are still walking in confusion simply because they walk after their senses and emotions. These have become weak being driven by the fickleness of their feelings and their senses. For those who lean on feelings alone for direction have become deprived of My Sovereign power or direction. The spiritual intuitions in such children are stifled, looking only to their feelings to provoke their will to obey. For this reason many are unable to follow My direction. For if by My Spirit they are not elated to do a service for Me, they will suppose this not to be My will. In such cases they will substitute their own feelings for true Spiritual direction and will be led by their senses alone rather than by My Word which changeth not. I tell you that all that has to do with flesh, including feelings, will miss My sovereign will. For this reason I have said: For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. Therefore I say, train yourselves by My Word to recognize the difference between right and wrong and then do what is right.
"Restoration"
June 1, 2006
Jhn 12:28 Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.
Beloved,
Be encouraged, I have heard the petitions of My people and My promises I will keep. I have come as a light into the world not to condemn the world, but to save them, and who ever believes on me shall not abide in darkness. I tell you this because, this is a day of decision for many, a day of change, changed hearts, changed lives. I am ministering life to the castaways, I will give help to the helpless. Yes, I shall send in the strays and the wanderers, and blessings shall once again abound among those of you I have called according to My purpose.
Rise up My people and ready yourselves to evangelize the lost. Demonstrate My love before a needy people. Present My character to the public with enthusiasm and you will see that I have indeed been your helper and your preserver in all things. Yes, I am taking souls out of captivity, and I will restore them, and establish them, and I will place them among your ranks. I will build them upon "The Firm Foundation", Yes, upon the Rock of their salvation according to My perfect will and purpose.
My people, As you yield to Me in these days I will increase your capacity to bring life imparting influence and liberty to many captives. So rejoice that I am able and willing to meet every need, to hear and answer every request, and to cause increase among you.
"Grace For the Journey"
Rom 4:4 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
May 31, 2006
My child,
Receive the fullness of My grace that I am ever giving you! Stop the futile looking to yourself for strength for the journey. Of this I have spoken before. My grace is the impartation of My strength into the receptacle of your weakness. It is available only to those who know that they have come to the end of their natural strength and are ready to receive My divine strength. My grace is My gift and it goes beyond all natural explanation. My child, it comes to you not according to a religious formula of the flesh but My sovereign gift of love. Clothed with My grace you are fitted and ready to handle every situation, for the strength of Christ is yours.
Reigning Love
May 30, 2006
My child,
My love is not an occasional emotion but is the pouring forth of My very life, all that I am, given to you without limit. My love is My presence with you, the totality of My infinite Being. You must never think of My love as an isolated part of Me, merely a thought, a feeling or desire toward you. Limitless love is My very nature and can never be separated from My power, My wisdom and knowledge.
You must never confuse My love with human love that so often exists in a state of frustration. Your human love knows yearnings, longings and desires to do the My children good, but is helpless and without power to implement and act on their behalf.
My love is not merely My desire for your wholeness but is My almighty power to accomplish it. For Me to love is to act and My action is My almighty love. My love not only died in weakness but rose from the dead in omnipotent power and now reigns above all powers and names.
"Clothed in Love"
May 29, 2006
My child,
Know that My unconditional love for you is not only coming home to rest at the end of a long journey; it is also the beginning of the working of My power in your life by which I will conform you to the image of My Son. I not only embrace you in love, but also remove your rags and clothe you with My wardrobe and give you a place in My family. Celebrate your life in My Love.
"Receive... The End of Your Faith"
May 28, 2006
1 Peter 1.9 "…receiving the end of your faith the salvation of your souls....
My children,
The salvation of your souls takes in your whole being, glorified and radiant with My Spirit, having been made new, you have become strangers in this world and partakers of the divine nature. Yes, your values and lifestyle have now been adjusted and you are out of step with those around you. I have actively separated the chaff from among the wheat and the sheep from among the goats and yes, the difference has become clearer to you. You are My lights in a dark world and I delight in you. Therefore, I say to you, live and work in this present world as strangers to its values embracing your newness with joy. Live in My Spirit to the full. Savor My presence within you moment by moment with a hopeful expectation of a greater glory ahead. You My children, are the only ones who truly can! Go about your daily work with joy and contentment and having an holy enthusiasm for My names sake. Celebrate the fellowship of My Spirit within you at all times knowing that I have given to you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy. Receive this assurance, that you can presently enjoy heaven on the way to heaven and you may enjoy the fellowship My Spirit here and now to the limit your finite persons are able to contain it. Your daily fellowship with Me is your assurance that you are receiving "Me" the end of your faith, and experiencing more fully the foretaste of your final salvation. In this you should rejoice!
"The Power of Love"
May 27, 2006
My child,
Know that it is My love that is now your life center, your dwelling place. From that center My love would flow through you to all I place in your pathway. My love is not only mighty toward you but also mighty in and through you. I do not send you into the world in weakness, impotent to accomplish that which My love within you yearns to bring to pass. I send you forth with My love, that is My presence in and with you, My divine power, wisdom and knowledge to accomplish all I desire.
In and through you My hand reaches to the lost, the hurting and broken, not with love-wishes but almighty love-power to make whole and transform. Be bold to expect of My love. Speak the words of My love aware that they are My power and stretch out your hand in the Name of the Lord Jesus who is My love forever with you.
"Carefree Living"
May 26, 2006
Jhn 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
Beloved,
It is My desire to teach you how to live free in eternal peace. Learn My child to cast every issue of concern upon Me before your emotions step in to steal your peace. Trust that I will order and I will provide for all that fits My purposes. Let go of the habitually struggles with time. Cease setting goals that are unrealistic and require tenuous amounts of effort on your part. Let go of all obsession over the acquiring of things you believe you should have. Once again anxiety has set in through thoughts that My supplies will be late or not be realized at all.
That is not My way beloved, but is the way of the anxious doubting heart. You have built a belief that you must do things if they are to be done, but I am here in this moment in you and with you, arranging all things according to My perfect will and purpose. As you learn to rest from self demands you will enter into My rest. In letting Me fulfill My purposes, you will learn to let go of the anxiety and the false guilt you have about the self imposed achievements which I have not ask of you.
Beloved, all that I ask of you, I will provide for, and it all will come at just the right moment. Leave the planning to Me My child, rest and realize that I have not called you to do but to be. Quieten your soul and listen for My voice. As you do you will find eternal peace and learn the way of a care free existence. Meditate on these words: Cast all your cares upon Me, for I care for you. Let this message sink in until you can turn loose of those things which are eroding your joy and stealing your peace. Trust Me and I will draw out your faith to rest in Me.
"Daily Bread"
May 25, 2006
Mat 6:11 Give us this day our daily bread.
My Child,
While you are looking and waiting to have in your hand the grace that will carry you through next month, you will never fully realize My grace for this hour. Why waist today’s grace on your fears and imaginations of tomorrow. The grace that I give you today is not grace for tomorrow. While you turn your attention on imaginary problems that belong to another day, you are not using My grace to unlock the provisions to be discovered for today’s challenges.
Do you not know that I will give you sufficient grace today to plan and be ready for tomorrow, but tomorrow’s grace and supply will not be yours until tomorrow arrives. My child, My provision is always in abundance and is given to you to be spent in, and to fill to overflowing the moment you are now living in. You are to enjoy it to it's fullest extent with the confidence that it will be followed by a new abundance of grace uniquely fitted to the next minute.
My grace is your daily bread, not this weeks ration. Today you have the supply of strength and the grace for this hour and no more but you have My covenant word of promise of My faithful provision, and faith rests in it. Learn to walk carefree and confident in My grace that always is, and in the certainty that I will be there when the next hour arrives giving you the grace to handle whatever it brings to you.
"Obedience of faith"
May 24, 2006
Jhn 15:4-5 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye [are] the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
My Child,
There is a "Lie" that is the basis of all sin. This lie turns all hope and expectancy toward self and the effort that self can produce. But the obedience of faith, trust and rests in Me as your complete salvation past, present, and future. This type of obedience requires an acknowledgment that you cannot obey Me apart from My indwelling presence... even in areas where you think that you can. My Child, will power is the root of the sin of "pride" that says "see what I have done", but obedience rises from helpless faith and rests in My abiding Spirit alone.
For with Me nothing shall be impossible to you, but through flesh all works are in vain. Through your submission and obedience you are able to put away acts of sin and to put on love. Trust Me beloved, live by faith in My Power, My Wisdom, and My direction and then all My other commands will be within the reach of your submission and obedience. It is not your flesh with its will power that is called to imitate God in Christ, but the crucifying of the flesh, drawing your life from the Spirit of Christ within you. This is the only way for you to bring forth Godly fruit unto righteousness, yes a fruit which will remain and an obedience worthy of My rewards.
"Teaching Grace"
May 23, 2006
2Cr 12:8 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
My Child,
Faith has nothing to do with life's fairness or unfairness. Faith is concerned with seeing Me through eyes of the spirit and revealing Me, so that you may live in My strength and love those you find yourself put together with in life. Do not become mindful about whether what is happening is fair or not. Turn your attention to how My love and grace are using these situations to further your growth and spiritual development in grace. Look at the people and situations that irritate you through My eyes. They are in your life for a season, yes to purposefully get under your skin and to pry out all your hidden weaknesses. It is because I love you that I choose to use these as My tools to teach you your total inability to live My life. As you come to acknowledge your inability, so, in direct proportion shall you know My strength. Your life will be clothed with My Spirit and Christ shall be magnified in and through you as you are empowered to love people with My unconditional love. You will know My joy and peace that passes and swallows up all discontent as you rest in My love.
"Divine Friend"
May 22, 2006
Pro 18:24 A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.
My child,
I invite you to come out of the safety of your intellectual pursuits and dare to open your heart to Me . Take time to be with Me today as your "Friend" and not as your "Business Associate". In your learning of ME... learn the depths of My love for you. Learn that I am the Friend that sticketh closer than any brother. Learn that I want you to know My infinite unconditional love at the level of your dearest friend. I am touchable and My love for you is safe. I want you to feel this safety and learn to be at ease with Me. Do not be afraid to draw close. I want you to feel My nearness, to be bathed in My fear removing love. Do not let the failures of the past or the fantasies of the future mar the beauty of todays fellowship. I have called you to be carefree through life, to give Me the weightiness and worries of all your troubles. Yes, only when you know that you are My friend, are you ready to truly serve with Me freely. Only when you learn of My trustworthiness will you loose your grip on all that which troubles your weary mind. Let go of the past My friend. Open the door to living in this moment with Me, sharing all your joys and all your cares.
"Our Defender"
May 21, 2006
Psa 3:3 But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
My Children,
I am always here for you. You can be sure that I will be here with you should troubles come your way. When the enemy tries to harm you, I will protect you and he shall fear you because of Me. When you are confused, I am the safe One you can tell your heart to and know that I will listen, I will be your light and your direction. When life is chaotic you must know that it is safe for you to admit being weak and afraid around Me. You do not have to pretend to have it all together for Me or for those around you. Be free to share your distresses with Me and I will give you My peace and My wisdom.
"Reassurance From The Father"
May 20, 2006
Isa 44:6-8 "This is what the Lord, Israel's King and Redeemer, the Lord Almighty, says: I am the First and the Last; there is no other God. Who else can tell you what is going to happen in the days ahead? Let them tell you if they can and thus prove their power. Let them do as I have done since ancient times. Do not tremble; do not be afraid. Have I not proclaimed from ages past what my purposes are for you? You are my witnesses-is there any other God? No! There is no other Rock-not one!" (NLT)
Beloved,
Do not think of Me as one who starts a project and becomes weary, restless, or frustrated and then abandons the work along with a host of other unfinished projects. I have never begun a work without completing it, and I have begun My good work in you. I will also bring this work to completion. All the works of My hand are good works and so they shall be in and through you as well. I am with you at all times and I am ready to answer your faintest cry.
I am a deliberate Designer who not only created your universe, but I sustain it today. My help is unquestionable, it exist before you call out to Me and while you are calling the answer is on the way. Allow no gloomy or unwholesome feelings or thoughts to rule over you as though "I am withholding some good thing from you." These thoughts are projections from the "father of all lies" and must be resisted. Trust in Me, and trust in My Word, "No good thing will I withhold from them that walk uprightly."
I am with you this morning as you rise from your sleep and nothing has changed, For I do not change. Therefore, rise up with confidence that I am bound to you through My Love and will never leave you or cause you to have to fend for yourself. Again I say to you My child... Rest in Me! I uphold everything by the power of My Word. Nothing shall fail thee, though adverse winds kick up their dust to hinder your Vision. Speak to these stirring, overwhelming, and depressing winds...they shall cease . They are subject to "You" at My Word. Look beyond the realm of the seen as one who speaks of those things which others do not yet see. Use your faith in Me to call things forth from the visions I put before you. Watch as I become the power behind your words to bring it to pass.
"Obedience Unto Righteousness"
May 19, 2006
Rom 6:12-14 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. Neither yield ye your members [as] instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members [as] instruments of righteousness unto God. For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
My Child,
Delight to obey Me and present your body the vehicle for My life to be made manifest in and through. It is not that your desires are intrinsically wrong or evil; it is when you accept them as the directors of your conduct, and give to them an authority over you that they become evil. I have called you to freedom, to choose to rest in Me and from that foundation to make costly faith choices that you may increasingly be conformed to way of doing and thinking. Let this mind be in you and give no place to the impulses that spring at you from your past way of life, impulses that demand that you conform and fashion your lifestyle to fit them. They are no longer expressing who you are, they have no right to be clothed with your behavior patterns. Therefore, declare that they have been and are crucified with Christ and you now a child of God.
"My Help"
May 18, 2006
Psa 121:1-7 [[A Song of degrees.]] I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help [cometh] from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD [is] thy keeper: the LORD [is] thy shade upon thy right hand. The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.
My Child,
Nothing that shall come upon thee shall overtake thee. Nothing that shall presents itself before thee is able to disregard My presence within thee. I am the Lord and I am own your side. I ask you who then can be against you. I have made thee a planting and you shall grow and be fruitful. I will cause you to see it with your own eyes. I will give you favor and I shall delight in you and you in Me. I am thy help and I am always present for you. Call upon Me and watch My love make a way where there is no way. Talk to Me in the cool of the day and learn to rest in the heat of trial, for I the Lord am thy keeper, you are ever in My watchful care.
"Holiness and Consecration"
May 17, 2006
1Pe 1:13 Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:
My Church,
Are you willing to hear? Then listen and understand what I am saying to you My People, My Glorious Bride. Everyone of you who are victorious over the affairs of the flesh, who overcome through your faith will be partakers of the hidden manna. For this manna is hidden, yet shall be revealed to those who obey My Spirit from the heart. Of this I have spoken: "He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him." Jhn 14:21
Therefore, try your own selves, see if you have remained in the faith. Prove this for your own selves. If through the hearing of My Word you recognize your duty to be good, then go on through your consecration to holiness. Allow My Word to become the rule of truth guiding your every action in righteousness.
Do not neglect the pursuit of holiness, for I have called you to be a holy people, yes even peculiar, as those who stands out in character from those about you. Yes, I have called you to be lights to a darkened world exposing works of darkness. You are in no way to be conformed to the world, but separate from it ruling over the desires of sinful flesh.
Again My People, I am calling you to live a life of holiness and consecration. Therefore, do not fashion yourselves according to the former lusts. Tolerate nothing which defiles, but confess all your faults, your weaknesses and sins to Me. In this manner you shall receive your forgiveness, you shall be healed of your sinful conditions, and you shall receive grace to help you in your times of helplessness.
My Spirit is grieves over "worldliness" still found among My people. Many of My people have fallen back into sin, being deceived have become corrupt, defiling and being defiled. Many being made unfit for My use, even some which I have chosen.
But to you I say, turn again to Me with a whole heart, practicing righteousness as you did at first. For I have given you power and dominion over your flesh and over all sin. Therefore obey from the heart My Spirit, put to death the desires of your flesh, and you shall be made a fit vessels for My use.
I will again restore thy sight and thy hearing that you may know what is the will of the Father concerning you. Yet I say, to hear this admonition and not do it is to be self-deceived, but the persons who joins with Me in fulfilling the Father's will shall become one spirit with Me, abiding in Me and partakers of heavenly manna.
"Love Incomprehensible"
May 16, 2006
Rom 5:5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.
Eph 4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
My Child,
Think of it, I am YOUR Creator, the Creator universe! I am Love, and I love YOU so much that I allow Myself to become vulnerable, opening Myself up to be hurt by your rejections. I experience grief deeper than the greatest grief of all mankind... Yes, I can grieve My Child! You have asked Me, "But how do I grieve you God, God who needs nothing... who is all sufficient and all powerful." My child, I am grieved when you depersonalize Me, when you see Me as only a an impersonal force or a power or a provider. I grieve when you are comfortable being a servant or a co-laborer and not My friend. I grieve when I am cast aside for a temporary moment of worldly pleasure, which for all intents and purposes will not appease the desires of the your spiritman. I am grieved when you frustrate My grace by unforgiveness toward others and when you mistreat any of My little ones. Yes, My Child, I can grieve! Having said that, I want you to know the intensity of My love for you...The intensity of My personal care and concern for you. I want you to see My love in depths which has never yet been realized. I want to introduce you anew to the Person who loves you enough to allow you Into My heart. It is also My desire that you know the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the communion of the Holy Ghost. This is the "Force" behind all that can be experienced as My Friend, Love Incomprehensible".
"Selfless Giving Love"
May 15, 2006
Rom 2:4 Don't you realize how kind, tolerant, and patient God is with you? Or don't you care? Can't you see how kind he has been in giving you time to turn from your sin? (NLT)
Beloved,
My love continues to be poured out without ceasing, in spite of the continual rebellion of those who are blessed by it. My kindness arises from My own infinite selfless giving love and is not kind in order to get a return on My goodness. I am kind to the ungrateful as well as the selfish. Kindness is the action side of patience, the attribute of love. Patience is essentially an attitude... a way of looking at people, while kindness is active goodness toward others. Your kindness in like manner should be built on the foundation of My infinite kindness toward you in Christ Jesus. Having seen this example you are to do deliberate and intentional acts based on this revelation of the good news given you in Christ. Never avenge yourselves. Leave that to Me. For it is written, "I will take vengeance; I will repay those who deserve it," says the Lord. Never pay back evil for evil to anyone. Do your part to live in peace with everyone, as much as possible. Do things in such a way that everyone can see you are honorable, for this is the way of your God.
"Ultimate Kindness is Ultimate Power"
May 14, 2006
1Cr 1:25-29 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, [are called]: But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, [yea], and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: That no flesh should glory in his presence.
My Child,
The divine love is born out of what looks like weakness. My Son was the center of My power for all of mankind, but was made the weakest of all men. At the cross you see the totality of this weakness, which at the same time was the total redemptive force which would heal the world. In the ultimate weakness of My Son, His infinite power was released into the world. He is the demonstration that ultimate kindness is ultimate power. This is one of the most revolutionary truths in the universe. Yes, and so it is with you, that I have chosen the weak things to confound the mighty ,and base things of the world, and things which are despised, have I chosen, and things which are not, to bring to nothing those things that are so that no flesh should glory in My presence.
"Duties of the New Covenant Priests"
May 13, 2006
Hbr 13:15 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name. But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.
Beloved,
As My priest you do not offer the bodies of dead animals but your own living bodies for My use. Without the sacrifice of your very selves then anything else you might do is of no value... merely the rehearsing of religious duties. As My new covenant priests, everything you do is a deliberate intentional act of giving praise to and for Me. This means that you do not live life reacting to other humans, speaking or acting or doing your work in response to who they are, but doing all as an act of worship to God. In this way the smallest and most insignificant task is clad with My glory.
"Assurances of the God Kind"
May 12, 2006
Psa 13:2-6 How long must I struggle with anguish in my soul, with sorrow in my heart every day? How long will my enemy have the upper hand? Turn and answer me, O Lord my God! Restore the light to my eyes, or I will die. Don't let my enemies gloat, saying, "We have defeated him!" Don't let them rejoice at my downfall. But I trust in your unfailing love. I will rejoice because you have rescued me. I will sing to the Lord because he has been so good to me. (NLT)
My Children,
Live with this assurance: you are My people who live in the eternal age here and now. For you have loved the Good Word of God and have received the end of your faith even the salvation of your souls. You have not turned aside to cunningly devised fables, but you have held to all that is Truth! Though you live in the midst of the deceitful, the hateful, the selfish and are suffering, you are abiding in My power, the power of the life of the age to come.
Therefore, walk not in fear as do others, but in trust in your heavenly Father. Cease from your concentration on the perils around you and abide in Me, Invoking My name, for I am ever present with you. I shall manifest My presence to you and I will feed you, and protect you and lead you by the peaceable waters of life.
Here My beloved, in the midst of your enemies, I have promised to be your shepherd, to lead you into green pastures by the straight and the narrow path. Though I have not taken you out of the world, I will keep you from evil in it, says the Lord. I have set up My banqueting table for you in the presence of your enemies.
Even before you call on My name, the people and the circumstances that cause you to tremble will lose their ability to make you afraid. The things and people that overwhelmed you are no longer your concern, for My grace restores you and assures you that all is well. Come now and rest My child, cease struggling to work things out in your natural abilities! My grace is sufficient for all your days, for I have planned ahead for thee.
"Love & Kindness"
May 11, 2006
Col 3:12-14 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
My Child,
Love giving itself in service is love blessing the life of others. Love is the power of kindness which will edify, build up, nurture and add to the strength of a person. Love is helping the weak to be strong and the strong to be stronger. Kindness will put envy and ill will to death. Therefore, I am asking you, My child, to move close enough to those in pain, that the power of My love may move through you to heal and encourage them. Rejoice with those that rejoice, and weep with those that weep. Get close enough to a person to feel their pain. This is a vital element of love and kindness, and must not be confused as caring impersonally from a distance. Kindness is reacting with goodness to those who ill-treat it. It is strong enough to do acts of good will to those who are not kind in return. If you are persecuted because you are a Christian, don't curse them; but pray that I will bless them. Allow My Spirit access through you to support and heal the person who has nothing to offer you in return and in doing so you will put on the bond of perfectness.
"Secret Strength for the Storms"
May 10, 2006
My Child,
Do not let your heart be tormented with the fear that you will do something to cause Me to leave you or treat you with indifference in moments of weakness. I am the power to resist, the legal, logical, or moral force of your mind. I am the principal component of all strength and I give to you peace in the midst of high emotions. I am your deliverer, the preserver of strength for your weary body. Be still My child. Realize My presence with you and in you. Draw from Me sustaining strength, for I am thine all in all. I am at the center of your being. I am present throughout this day, even when frustration seeks to obscure your path.
When you feel desperation overcoming you, realize that I am with you, for I am the ever present helper in times of need. My Child, it is in such an hour that you come to know Me more intimately. Here you will discover the depths of My love and My strength toward you. Resist your hopeless thoughts and fearful feelings of weakness. Take courage knowing that I am "Immanuel", God with you, to walk in you through this day and use it all for good. My spirit is teaching you a new dimension to the meaning of ever present help! So here is the secret that will bring light to what would otherwise be your dark hours... "Announce from your inmost being to your outer man “The Lord is with you!” Let these simple words return you to your center of peace. Let it lead you courageously through the next hour and experiences of life.
"Faith Directed Actions"
May 9, 2006
Psa 119:80 Let my heart be sound in thy statutes; that I be not ashamed
My Child,
Again I tell you that I am all you need. As you choose to act on this, you will find the infinite river of supply rising within you and all around you. I am the ultimate supply. I am your bread, your water and your deliverance! But My child, I do not just act on your behalf. You must choose to recognize your need and ask of Me out of your inability. In your choice to do so, the infinite supply would be made known to you. Resting in Me is not passivity, but activity of the highest order. True faith is choosing to act on the basis of what I have already spoken. True faith never sits back and says, “God, you do,” but rather says, “God has done; therefore, I will now do. True faith chooses to look at life as it really is and not as it appears to be. It sees through the appearances and circumstances to God, the reality. Therefore, do not sit in your circumstances and say, “Why did you allow this...what have I done wrong to bring this on myself?” You are to recognize that you are in it in order to choose reality over and against the appearances that confront you. I am actively placing you in situations that demand you choose to act out of My life within you, even though at the time you may not feel that life. It means that you are to stop complaining that I have neglected you and forever begging the church to pray you out of your situation. It is time to arise and act out of the information presented of who you are in Christ. It is time My child, to know what I have said and to act upon it! This is not presumption, but faith directed action. True faith maketh not ashamed.
"The Holy Commitment"
May 8, 2006
Rom 8:38-39 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
My Child,
I am with you, I love you without limit or condition, I have committed Myself to you with covenant oath swearing by Myself never to leave or forsake you. I am all around you, for life with all of its circumstances, problems, and joys takes place within the embrace of My love. I am with you in this very moment, you are in Me and I am in you. You are carried upon the current of the unlimited energy of My love. Its origin is in the eternal spring of the heart of your Creator. This day you awoke being carried on the current of My love, to experience My life within you. I am closer to you than the breath you breathe. I wait for you in the opening hours of this day. My love is calling you to come and discover Me in all that each moment will hold. You came from My hand, I created and formed you with the single purpose of making you the object of My love. I am intimately involved with every detail of your life, whether relationships, work or play; I have made your life, with all its complexities and joys. Be still! Hear My voice resonate through this day, “For I am with you!”
"The Missing Link"
May 7, 2006
Jhn 14:21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
My Children,
Each one of you desires to be loved, to feel special, to be viewed as valuable, to be singled out among men and seen as creatures of worth. Yet among men you seek to have this inmost need fulfilled. Yes, you seek this among those who like yourself do not understand that this desire was placed in your heart by a Loving Creator. Yet, the search still continues day by day among those who deny Me place in their lives, by those who seek love from another source.
Each of you are aware of the falleness of your nature, and if it were possible that one could express meaningful love to you, you would, because of that same nature, question the validity of such words or deeds. Though man should share with you his greatest words of affection, all that is "fallen human" will shine through the character of his words and the smallest doubt would remain in the mind of the hearer. This makes the giving and the receiving of love impossible among unregenerate men.
Therefore, I ask you, which man among men can share with you unconditional love? What man apart from those which have My Spirit, can ever think about love in such un-indebted terms? Who among men does not seek his own way and does not give in order to receive something in return? Pause My children, take an inventory of the incompleteness of love in your lives. You will see that I alone can fulfill the Love need of a man in such a manner.
As I reveal this to you, It is with great desire that you will see My face as a Loving Creator and not an Austere Judge. Even My judgement is still My love saying to you all, I love you, please stop your self destructive and hell bent ways. Have you not read in My Word, that ye must be born again? Consider the completeness in the death of this old nature and the rebirth of the new creature. It is in this regeneration that I will impart the missing link, the gift which secures! Unconditional Love. It is in this way that I will restore to you all that was lost in the garden of sin!
Your pursuit and turmoil will end as you accept My terms of Love, as you accept Me (LOVE) into your heart. Since the days of the fall of man I have actively sought to restore fellowship, to heal man of that which was taken from him by sin! I have sought to give him life and fellowship! To show Him My love in complete ways.
Come now, consider all that is missing...is it not your creator? Am I not the Creator, the life, the light, the good shepherd which watches over His sheep? All are mine beloved! I am the all in all! In Me you all live and move and have your existence. Stop and acknowledge Me, acknowledge the Power and Love I have for you and you shall Live... though you were dead! Return to your search for Me and you will find Me. I am not far from any one of you! And My children, I am not willing that any should perish! Is this not Love? Call upon Me while I may be found...yes, while My breath continues to give you the ability to do so. If you will accept that through My Son Jesus, all your sin debt has been paid, you will see that I have done all to reconcile our fellowship because of My love for you. He that accept this freedom will walk with Me in newness of life and will find the missing link!
"Rid Yourself of Fuzzy Faith"
May 6, 2006
1Pe 1:13-15 Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance: But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;
My child,
There is a work that you must prepare for, a strenuous work of daily renewing your mind. In coming to Me you finally have The Truth to think about instead of the foolishness that makes up much of what this world calls intellectual exercise. For many of My people, faith is something apart from the mind. Do not be deceived, do not be content with a fuzzy faith that you have never proven personally. Do not be content with believing items of faith simply because your parents did. Get beyond this superficiality and let your mind understand the wonder of My love plan for you.
My child, your behaviors flows out of your thought life. You are today the belated announcement of what you have been thinking about these many days or even months. But as you come to Me, Truth invades your inmost being, for I am the Truth. It is then that you begin the process of applying that Truth to everything you have believed in the past. It becomes a massive process of renewing the mind, throwing out all that sprang from lies and a superficial understanding. If you do not do this you will be a very confused person whose mind is dictating a lifestyle that is based on the Lie, while your spirit longs for the Truth which I have revealed to you.
The depth of your perceptions concerning revealed Truth, will shape your attitude and actions, and it will determine how you conduct your life. All true faith desires to be conformed to My image and will delight in this command to get your minds Renewed. All your works or behaviors as a believer begin in renewing your mind. It is in your renewed thinking that the transformation of behavior takes place. As it is written; "And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God." Romans 12.2
"Blessing and The Blessed"
May 4, 2006
Hbr 6:7 For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God:
My Children,
From the beginning I have made My face to shine upon you that you may know you are loved. I have looked upon you with great joy and have dispensed to you the Blessing of My Word that you might be clothed upon by it. Yes, even when you were away from Me, I actively pursued you to bless you and to overtake you with blessings. As it is written:
Zep 3:17 The LORD thy God in the midst of thee [is] mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.
This is My delight, that because of My steadfast love, you remain in Me, having received of Me the Good Word of God which is able to save your souls, that now you should also know that My Word toward you is ever Yea and Amen. Walk not as men who have no hope, for all I have is thine. For it is also written:
Eph 1:3-7 Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly [places] in Christ: According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
"Identity & Purpose"
1Jo 4:12b ... If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.
May 4, 2006
My Children,
I created you to find your true identity in your relationship with Me.Only by My Spirit can you be properly defined. It is only as you walk in relationship with Me that you can know true loving relationships with any other human. Without being My friend at the citadel of your being, you will ever seek to make your human relationships a substitute for Me for whom you were made. Find your meaning and purpose in Me and I will grant you rich safe human relationships.
Infinite Embrace"
1Jo 4:17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.
May 3, 2006
Beloved,
With infinite longing I yearn for your intimacy as does a father yearn for his dearly loved child. I have loved you from before time with an unconditional love. Your human flesh feelings and flesh logic will never understand or believe it. Only those who against these feelings, choose to believe My word will know it. Declare aloud My love for you, even though you do not feel it, nor does it make sense to you. And at such time as you experience death to the confusion of the flesh, and glorious resurrection into the richness of the Spirit, will you feel My Infinite embrace.
"The Bigger Picture"
1Pe 4:14 If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy [are ye]; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
May 2, 2006
Fear not My child,
For I am with you. I have been with you in the darkest of days, watching over your path, and protecting you from unseen enemies. I am with you now, even though you do not feel Me. Again I say to you that I am committed to you with covenant love and will never leave you and never will I abandon you. My eye is ever upon you My beloved child. Know that you are Mine, purchased with holy blood. Walk into life assured of My presence. Cease looking at life through the knot hole in the gate seeing only the threat, concentrating only on the pain. Lift up your eyes My child and see the whole picture! See that I love you and I am with you and that I am for you in all things.
"To know the unknowable"
May 1, 2006
Eph 3:19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fullness of God.
My Children,
Many are the vain pursuits and empty dreams of ambitious men, but behold, I tell you of a great pursuit, one which will remedy the human thirst for temporal things, and cure all the maladies of the human soul. My children, it is to seek to experience for yourselves the love of Christ which passeth knowledge. For he who seeks after this knowledge shall be filled with all My fullness. For you are completed through your union with Christ. What earthly thing can hold him who hath seen the depths of such love? Therefore, let your faith abound ABOVE the limits of the known... "to know the unknowable." Let your faith reach for an endless treasure which provides a means for fellowship with the mystery of the ages. For this is available to you all through faith, and this is the promise I have made: "he that seeketh shall find. Therefore as dear children, set your affection on things above and pursue that which fadeth not away.
"Human & Divine Love"
April 30, 2006
1Pe 1:22 Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, [see that ye] love one another with a pure heart fervently:
My Children,
You have heard it said: "The lives of men are never the same after they have loved; if they are not better, they must be worse." "Be afraid of the love that loves you: it is either your heaven or your hell." "All discipline of men springs from their love, but if they take it not so, then all their sorrow must spring from the same source."
"My Children, there is a depth of sorrow, which can only be known to a soul that has loved the most perfect thing and beholds itself as fallen." These things are true of the Love, both of your brother and of your God. And the eternal interest of the life, is that one learned how, for strength and weakness, for better or for worse, your human and and your Divine loves are inseparably joined. Most men have learned that true love is inseparable from pain, but, I remind you that those who suffer in Love will also indeed reign with Love. Therefore, forgive your brother the least of their transgressions and and rule over your own hearts in Love.
"Treasure in Earthen Vessels"
April 29, 2006
2Cr 4:5 For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake. For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to [give] the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.
My Children,
Having received of Me the gift of My Son, you may now enter the service of others for Jesus sake. You have been given understanding of that which is valuable and that which is perishable. But now I tell you, the key to all blessed service is to understand and to accept that the excellency of the power within you is not of man but of God. All service must now be Spirit directed if there is to be any hope of Glory. And all glorying must be of God and not of the flesh. Therefore I say to you, quieten your souls in My presence, Sit before Me with expectant hearts, and receive the engrafted Word of God which will make you able servants having an expected end.
"The Dwelling Place"
April 28, 2006
1Cr 3:16Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of
God dwelleth in you?
My Child,
Your body is My dwelling place, we are joined in the Spirit, I am in you and you are in Me. I continue to live, love, and forgive men through you, continuing to do the will of My Father on earth. I am actively implementing My victory over darkness, I am not a passive savior or friend. I have given Myself to you, loving you with the fullness of My being as if you are even now the only person in existence. Revel in the fact that all of this I have accomplished for you! When you are surrounded by sorrow, uncertainty, and enemies seeking your destruction,“ trust in My faithful love and delivering power. Let your heart delight in My saving help. I am He who sticketh closer than a brother.
"Perpetual Revelatory Transformation"
April 27, 2006 (Ron's 52nd Birthday)
Luk 10:21-25 In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight. All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and [he] to whom the Son will reveal [him]. And he turned him unto [his] disciples, and said privately, Blessed [are] the eyes which see the things that ye see. For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen [them]; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard [them].
My Children,
It is possible to converse about My kingdom and teach others about My Kingdom and still not embrace or embody it. My Kingdom is righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. And there is but one way righteousness can be produced in men, and it is not by careful or meticulous observance of the law; nor the reading or teaching of My Words, however holy, but through a personal relationship with Me through My Holy Spirit. My Children, wisdom and knowledge are also not righteousness... though these have their place in the life of every believer. Like the law, the letter killeth, but the Spirit gives Life! But those who are made righteous, have been made so through the perpetual revelation of My Glory, My Power, and My Truth. A continual coming to the Light to have their deeds reproved.
The transformation of the reborn occurs only by revelation and not by intellectual ascent or the will of any man. Through revelation, human eyes are opened to the divine. It is then that I am seen as I truly am. Revelation changes all human perspective and speculation and all opinions fail as the eyes of the soul gazes upon the revealed Truth. My Children, for this reason I have not called you to be possessors of truth, but I have called you to be Stewards of Truth, "Lamps of Glory".... "Reflections of the revealer". For no man is the origin of Truth, nor shall any man possess it, control it, box it in, market it or sell it to the simple and unsuspecting. My Truth changeth not, it cannot be bent or manipulated, and men's religious forms cannot dispense it.
This is the Truth by which men are set free. This is the Gospel (good news) of the Kingdom which must be proclaimed. In the Light of this Revelation, all boundaries are removed and believers who abide in Me, shall walk together in a state of harmony before the eyes of all men. Do not be led astray My little one's... I am the only Way, the only Life, and the only Truth, and no man will see the Father except they come by Me.
"Enlightened"
April 26, 2006
Hbr 6:5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
My Child,
As I passed by, I beheld your devotion. You are among those who live in this world while drawing your life from the heavenly realm. You have discovered that this is where your true life is kept. Having been made a new creature in Christ, you have found yourself out of step with this present age and misunderstood by it's people! Yet, now have you also discovered a love in your heart that transcends this world, a joy that is inarticulate, a peace that is beyond expression and a forgiveness that is quite divine. Yes My child, you have tasted of the powers of the world to come. Your actions are no longer dictated by your natural life or by the circumstances that you find yourself in. Now you are lifted above such things by My abiding Holy Spirit. You have pondered those things which are above and have learned that your eternal inheritance is in each revelation of My Glory. Now the Holy Spirit within you imparts to you a foretaste of that greater inheritance. The eyes of your understanding have been enlightened; that ye may know the hope of My calling, and I want you to realize what a rich and glorious inheritance I have given to My people. But I tell you, in this fleeting temporal moment, you actually possess and live in the life that belongs to eternity. Yes, eternal life is yours now, for in Me you live, and move, and have your being. You have received the end of your faith...the salvation of your soul. It is for this reason that in difficult circumstances, you can rejoice with exceeding joy and the world becomes baffled by it. The world can only comprehend a happiness that springs forth from the events of the present moment. But in your rejoicing, you have a found a joy from another world that overcomes the negative situations of this present age through your faith in Christ alone. Yes My child, you have accessed heaven by the cross and you have crossed the valley of life through your faith and now you sit with Me in heavenly places and are made a partaker of the divine nature that is to come. You have also tasted the good Word of God, and seen the Powers of Heaven. You are among those who know, that having suffered with Me in this present age, you shall also reign with Me. Think of it My child, now you have been given dominion, and with Me, you now reign! By this same mighty power, I have given you all of My rich and wonderful promises, for I have promised that you will escape the decadence all around you caused by evil desires, and that you will share in My divine nature and riches forever. Think of it My child, I am in you, with you, by you, and through you and you are at home in Me.
"Gods Plan Revealed: To Openly Spoil the Works of Darkness"
April 25, 2006
Genesis 50:20 “But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive.”
Rom 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to [his] purpose.
My People,
No sooner are you saved... Then Satan begins his work to hinder the progress of the work of salvation in you. But, has it not become apparent to you, that My work in you progresses most through the many difficulties and the many challenges.
Consider My servant Job! Though the devil tempted Him sore and though he lost most of his earthly possessions, did I not heal him and restore to Him abundantly more than all of his losses? Was his testimony not a legacy to all who suffer?
Through the ages I have not changed... So take heart in the multitude of human calamities as you remember also Jacob's favored son Joseph. Was he not sold into slavery by jealous brothers only to become ruler of Egypt's wealth during a great time of famine? Did I not turn what was meant for evil into that which was for everyone's good? Was it not through Joseph that I provided for all My people during a national catastrophic event?
Likewise, when My servants Paul and Silas were cast into prison for interrupting the business plans of Satan and his merchants, were they not beaten and jailed for casting out the Spirit of divination from the damsel? But My people, Did I not cause the jailer and his whole house to be saved and for My servants open doors for greater expansion of the Gospel message?
And consider the most heinous crime against My Son Jesus, who laid down His deity, was grievously tormented by His own people, and then He was put to death. Yet My people, is it not recorded that I raised Him from the dead to save all those who receive Him as savior from the wages of all of their sins?
So shall it be in your lives when calamities befall you. Now take courage My people, as I will always bring good results from bad circumstances. Take heart knowing it is always My delight in spoiling the enemy's plans concerning you and by turning bad circumstances into spiritual victories which will bless multitudes. The greater the persecution My people, the greater the victories.
"Encouragement and Remembrances"
April 24, 2006
My Child,
Write these words of encouragement to those who truly seek Me. Tell them that I love them more than their minds can conceive. Tell them that their search for Me is not in vain, and remind them that they shall surely find Me when they seek for Me with all their heart. In finding Me, they shall be blessed of My Father in ways most unexpected.
Tell My people it is a new day, and in this new day, I shall once again pour out My Spirit upon all flesh. I am always with them and I am always for them, although this may not always seem apparent when the fiery trials are white hot. Tell them again that it is not My desire for any to perish and that I desire that their lives would be filled with good things and peace ... Not with perpetual evil and travail. Tell them My mercies are new every morning and that every confessed sin is forgiven and forgotten. Remind them for Me that I stand ready to cleanse their souls from their guilt and deliver them from their destructions.
Tell them it is not My desire to withhold any good thing from them and that I delight in showing Myself strong for them, especially in their times of perceived weakness. Remind My people to taste and see that the Lord is good, and not to run from My holy presence, but to run to Me at all times. Tell them that as they cast their cares upon Me I will lift their heavy load.
Tell those who do not know Me that I am knocking at the door of their heart, and if they open the door to Me, I will surely come in and make my abode with them. Tell My people that I hear every prayer they pray and that I answer according to My Divine Wisdom. Tell My people to rest in Me. Put their trust in Me. I am moving in their circumstance. I am lining things up according to My will and My purpose. Tell them they are not exempt from afflictions, but for the righteous, I will deliver them from them all. And Finally My Child, Tell them To look up, for their redemption draweth nigh. I Am coming soon, and those who are Mine shall surely rejoice at My appearing. Be ready My people, for you know not the hour of My appearing. Behold, I come quickly!
"Get Ready To Run"
April 23, 2006
My Son
I am calling out those who have an ear to hear, Get ready to Run with My Word. Do you hear the rain coming again upon a dry and thirsty church? Yes, a rain which will bring about new fruit and an abundance of souls to the harvest.
Yes, My message is clear. The invitation is to be ready to run with Me. Yes, run with My message far and wide, for I am sending forth My messengers, and I am dispensing My Word to multitudes, Yes and they will also run with My Word to every corner of the Earth. Get ready My people to run with My Word.
"Come out of Hiding"
April 22, 2006
My Son,
Yes, I have provided a place for you. You will come out of your hiding. For I have opened the doors and I will thrust you forth to take more territory for Me. Watch and see Me shift things in your favor. I will lift you up, and you will make My mark on your communities.
This is the day My Beloved, when I shall come in like a flood to raise up a standard in My House. I am training and equipping My soldiers, My warriors of the cross, to demonstrate My will in the earth. I am also teaching you the way things are to be done so that you will be fully-equipped.
So arise from your obscurity, and meet the challenges I put before you with faith. For I have surely destined you to oversee many and to walk in Kingdom authority.
"Restoration & Harvest"
April 21, 2006
My Son,
I will restore that which has been lost. I will repair the breech and restore everything that has been under attack by the enemy. Yes, I will restore People, Land, and many Houses shall return because I have spoken it, says the Lord.
It is time My son, to reach out and to evangelize, to cast out your nets on every side and bring in a great catch. Yes, I am sending out those which I will use to bring in a harvest of souls. I even I, will send those who will help with the harvest.
Watch as I open the doors that have been closed in your community. Can you see that I have chosen you for this and strategically placed you for such a time as this? Soon you will you will see it. You will see how I send you help from other places, how I rearrange things so that you will be fully functional according to My purpose and good pleasure. Just wait on Me...you will see, I will do it!
You will see what I have put into motion, how I am building you, progressing you, and moving things forward. You will watch Me take you to new Spiritual heights, I will remove those things that are an offense to Me, and create an atmosphere of love where My people can grow. No, I have not left you by the wayside. I am simply adjusting things, I am moving you on, on to higher ground in My Spirit, and into greater authority.
I will transfer wealth into your hands. I will remove the obstacles, and I will lay a firm foundation. You will see Me build upon it. You will not be tossed to and fro, but will firmly be placed on track. I will pour out My blessing in your midst. I will bring you into the full realm of My blessing.
*Note: this seemed to be a personal word, but I am sharing it with you all because I believe God is saying this to encourage others in ministry and prophetic works as well.
"Follow on to the end"
April 20, 2006
1 John 2:24-25 Let that therefore abide in you, which ye have heard from the beginning. If that which ye have heard from the beginning shall remain in you, ye also shall continue in the Son, and in the Father. And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life.
Rise up O Man of God,
Dare to stand in the full faith of that which I have delivered unto you and believe no longer the lies of the evil one. You have allowed those who have walked away to discourage you in that which I have called you to do. As Abraham of old, you looked to man instead of to Me to help you fulfill the that which I have spoken. But Man of God, your hope and your calling can only be found in Me. As it is written: without Me, you can do nothing!
Yes, and I will bring others along side to help you, yes, to restore the work, and to aid you in reaching precious souls for My kingdom. Some will come for just a season, and some will stay and be good people for you. Some of these will not able to overcome their flesh to fulfill that which is of the Spirit. But, remember these things which I tell you before hand, that you may know and prepare your heart before Me.
But you my beloved, must remain faithful, looking only to Me, "The author and finisher of your faith." In Me you have found solid footing and are standing on that which I spoken over you. For surely you have discovered that My ways are not the ways of men, Nor are My thoughts the thoughts of men.
I have not looked upon you as do men, but I have looked upon your heart. Those I use, I have also endued you with power from on high. Men look upon your flesh and see your faults. They would condemn you for your imperfections... But, I never called you because of your perfection My Son. Who then would I call? But I have called you according to My will and My purpose.
Yes, I have separated you and called you... even before time began. You were already ordained a messenger as you came forth from your mother's womb. Therefore, do not look upon men and say they did this, or they said that. For I ordained your opportunities as well as your opposition so that you would not become dull from life's daily routines.
I foreknew that some would come, and that some would also forsake you. This I allowed to bring you time and time again to the foot of My throne. My son, their departures in no way reflects or defines your value or your worth concerning My purposes.
No, it was divine allowance which saw you responding in brokenness, and usable contrition. I have not forsaken you My son, nor have I left you to your own devices. I am ever with you, training you, comforting you, and encouraging all along this path of life.
Through the chaos you have grown in stature and in character, though you have not fully appreciated nor understood the trials that I have allowed. I could have kept you from these trials, but My wisdom dictates that it is the trials that mold you and that builds the contrite heart that will honor Me.
But I remind you whose Work this is... and I also remind you that the faithful are coming to help you My Son, just as I have said they would. Those who have been made stable, full of integrity, and are willing to suffer difficult times for My Glory and name's sake are coming to aid you in these last days. These know that they shall obtain a better life when the fullness of My Glory is revealed. These have learned the value of the unseen, which is far greater than the seen.
Remember My son, Many have been called, but few are the chosen. You have continued to pleased Me in your determination and faith. Now continue in faith, standing on a firm foundation and set yourself to follow Me to the end.
"Stir up the Gifts"
April 19, 2006
My Child,
This is a time to stir up the gifts within you, to renew your spiritual energies and to know that I am actively at work on your behalf. I have not cast thee aside, nor has My love for you changed. I have blessed thee with the bounties of heaven and have withheld no good thing from you. I have given to you all your heart desired as you delighted yourself in Me, and yes, I am ready to yet do even more.
For surely the light of My presence shall again shine out of your personal times of darkness. The faith thou hast exercised through the years will assuredly be rewarded an hundred fold. Thou hast beheld My power and My glory has not been hidden from thee. I have always been thy refuge in thy hour of need.
My child, My mercies are simply inexhaustible and My faithfulness is extended to every generation. Do you not know that I long to show Myself strong on your behalf and My desire is ever for thee? I am thy Lord and I never change ! Therefore come with a transparent soul, cast thyself and thy circumstances upon My mercies and experience My loving kindness toward thee! Even in this hour you will find My grace is sufficient for thee. Therefore come, lift up thine eyes with childlike expectancy and be filled with My glory once more.
"Oil of Gladness"
April 18, 2006
My Child,
Saturate thy soul in the oil of the Holy Spirit and keep thy channel of communication ever open to hear from Me. As you do, I will make thy soul glad and heal thy wounds. Do not tolerate any idea of discouragement, for this limits My hand of operation on your behalf. Faith can see with eyes of the Spirit the impossible made possible. Doubt and unbelief must be arrested, for nothing good can be accomplished in that frame of mind. Let your faith arise by the rehearsal of My Words, let your praises be heard, and your enemies will be scattered. Now come unto Me renewed in your heart and with and expectant spirit and I will do a great work in your midst and in your heart.
"Tending Your Own Vineyard"
APRIL 17, 2006
Sgs 1:6 Look not upon me, because I [am] black, because the sun hath looked upon me: my mother's children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards; but mine own vineyard have I not kept.
My Child,
I am not displeased with you, but you are displeased with yourself. My Son paid the debt for all your transgressions and short comings. Yet, I tell you that there are those who would make you to bear the weight of their burdens and even to the point of anger with you if you do not.
There are so many demands made of you. Much of which you falsely feel responsible for, even of the needs of those who clamor for your attention. There are so many things that you feel you are driven to do, so many calls you believe that you must make. But My child, I desire to cut out the meaningless and wearying activity that you think is needful service to Me.
I would cut you away from the people that are draining your life energies and from that which is more necessary. Many activities are around those dry wells which have not learned the true origin of life and are not receiving My life which you seek to give to them. Beloved, I will send to you, those who are ready to receive My life, My salvation.
I desire that you would live without such distraction, not finding your life and meaning in the demands of hardened people, or in the busyness of daily administration, but in Me. I am your true Life and I give the meaning to your existence.
You must again find your centering around this one goal, that of being My dwelling place. Your time with Me will radiate My glory out throughout your whole being. Your heart must no longer be divided between Me and service, but centered in Me alone.
From this centering, you will know more abundantly the life I would have for you and be less emotionally drained day after day. In My presence, I will restore your joy and I will give back to you holy energy where there is no exhaustion, distraction or anxiety.
Yes I will even remove the false guilt over not doing enough for Me and replace it with a sense of completeness in your daily time with Me. Be at rest in My presence. You will find this rest restores joy, removes fear, and and establishes undescribable peace. Take time to tend your own vineyard, others will see the care and attention given to that which truly matters, and it will be an example for others to follow who are also weary.
"Fitly Joined"
April 16, 2006
Ephesians 2:20-22 Having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone in whom the whole building, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.
My Children,
The ache has always been there...just inside your heart. An ache that ask "why My Church is so splintered and so disjointed?" My children, I have put this ache, yes, this desire for unity in the hearts of all believers who seek to know and do My will.
Each of you are living stones that are built into a single building. That means you are joined to and alongside other believers as you are joined to Me. You are together making up the Temple of God and one stone does not a Temple make! One stone and the Chief corner stone does not make a building. A stone lying by itself is part of nothing and useless.
I am the Cornerstone and My Church is My building, I am the Head and the Church is the Body. My Church and I are one My children, and in Me there is no schism. I have called you all to lay aside all religious malice and the whole list sins from your old life. For not one of you is perfect apart from Me.
My children, There should be no schism in the body; members should have the same care one for another. If one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it. Now all of you together are make up My body in the earth, and though each one of you is separate, each of you are a necessary part of it.
My Church is not an optional extra, merely a good idea for Christians. A believer cannot have an independent Christianity isolated from other believers. But now The Father is the one who has set each one of you, in the body just as He pleased, therefore let there be no division among you, but strive to walk as one before those who are outside of My body.
"Your Richest Treasure"
April 15, 2006
1Cr 13:7 Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.
My Beloved,
Faith and endurance are characteristic of those who love, for truly love will continue under all circumstances. Yes, love gives because it is loves nature to give. Men may many times be motivated to give with an idea of receiving something in return, but love gives when there is no reward, no gift, nor exchange of services.
Love is not a respecter of persons, nor of conditions. I have promised you in times past that I would teach you about My love. Yes, you thought you knew about My love, but I would teach you how to love, even as I do. Many trials and fierce winds have blown upon you since that time My child, but today you stand as one who endured through every situation.
When all manner of evil was spoken from the mouths of those who did not know Me, I breathed love into your heart to forgive even as they were speaking. When people forsook thee in the day of adversity... My love bathed you, and your fears and doubts were all washed away. Having been exposed to My love, you have endured great hardships, pain, privation, poverty, weariness, misunderstanding and sacrifice of personal wishes and needs.
My love within you has been your one sustaining force, and your richest treasure. The law of love was commanded, but to love with Me, is the secret of endurance and the source of an unfailing supply. Nothing brings greater satisfaction to your Creator My child, than to observe you teaching another soul to love in kind. For Love is the only fitting expression of the ransomed soul.
"Straight out of the Book"
April 14, 2006
Jhn 15:12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
My Child
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you. Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you. Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.These things I command you, that ye love one another. If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you. If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also. But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me. If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin. He that hateth me hateth my Father also. If I had not done among them the works which none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.But [this cometh to pass], that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause. And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning. Jhn 15:13-27
"Doubts and the Calling"
April 13, 2006
Man of God,
What has become of you, to allow doubt to eclipse your vision and steal your desire to fulfill the work which I have placed before you. Have you allowed fear to grip your heart because you feel unworthy to accomplish that which I have called you to do.
My beloved, I have called you according to My purpose, I not only love you but I delight in you, and I would that you could receive it to the extent it is meant. Then My child, you could speak openly with Me about great wishes and great dreams your desire. You would never tolerate the nay-sayers or the religious thought that would hinder My purpose.
But today you fear to admit your longings lest they fail to come to pass and once again and your past frustrations, hurts, and disappointments become today's nay-sayers which tell you... "you can't." For this reason I have said let every man be a liar and My Words be true.
My child, to truly dream you must be vulnerable and ready to risk all. If you are to accomplish the least thing you must release your experiences and rehearse your dreams with Me. I cannot use you unless you have died to protecting yourself from pain and have become truly alive in Me. Have you not read in My Word that Love never faileth and that faith worketh by love? Then be present to Me with all of your desires and dreams. Delight your soul in Me and rejoice at the kind of God and Father & God I am. I will give you the desires of your heart. For My word to you is "yes and amen." This will never change. For you have set your heart to follow Me, now share with Me your dreams and confess to Me your need for help to accomplish them.
My Child, to delight in Me is to love Me, and to love Me is to obey My Words, even the Words I place within thine heart, Yes, even if they seem plausible and yes desirable to you, for these desires are not born of the flesh but of My Spirit. My love draws all your desires into line with My will. As the light of My presence shines on your desires, I purify them and all unworthy desires fade away.” Now take up the cross and follow Me without doubt. For as I have called Christ so I have called you!
"Closer than a brother"
April 12, 2006
Pro 18:24 A man [that hath] friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend [that] sticketh closer than a brother.
My child,
Do not attempt to cloak your fears and weaknesses from Me; do you think that I love you less when you observe your own helplessness. Do you rehearse your victories with me in order to hide your true concerns? It is a vain belief that says I love you more in your days of victory than on days of overwhelming defeat. My child you do not have to guard your heart from Me! I do understand! Do you not remember that I was tempted in all points like as you are? That I cried to the Father that the cup of suffering be removed from Me? I have walked in your shoes and on your path and have felt the burdens that that you daily wrestle with. Realize that I share and live in your pain, your confusion and all your delights and joys. In it all My love for you never changes. Call upon me, express your weaknesses as you would your strengths. I have accepted you for neither. I have accepted you for your faith in My free gift of salvation through Jesus Christ My Son. My love for you is never changing. Have you not read that In your perceived weaknesses I am made strong. Come My child and tell me all that you struggle with. I stand ready to hear and help in every time of need.
"Overcomers by faith"
April 11, 2006
1Jo 4:4-6 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
My Child,
It was never My intent for a generation of Israelites to die as they wandered in the wilderness. My plan was to rescue them from the Egyptians and to bring them escorted by My angel to a good land. But I tell you fear had so twisted and perverted their Spiritual perception that they began to believe I was the deceiver which had brought them into greater oppression and was about to deliver them into the hands of another oppressor. What their logic did to them was to turn them from faith in My word, and My promise, to their own thoughts which brought their own destruction. The intimidator is after your faith as well, desiring to make you fear and doubt My intentions toward you. I tell you that you must submit to My Word, accept it as it is, allow it to be true, and let your own thoughts be condemned as traitors to your faith. This is the secret to faith inheriting the promises. Any thought which rises above that which I have spoken or that which is written must be subdued and brought into captivity. For all those who can believe it will find victory after continual victory. They shall be called appropriately, "OVERCOMERS."
"Words Give Life"
April 10, 2006
Beloved,
Your Responses determine your future! Your Words can bring life or death to any situation, beloved. Therefore, be watchful what you say. Watch over your responses and know that the opportunity for change and even salvation is nigh you, even in your mouth at all times. Deliver to me your speech daily and watch your world change speedily.
"The Accompanying Power"
April 9, 2006
2Cr 10:4-6 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds; Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; And having in a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
Jhn 14:26 But the Comforter, [which is] the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
My Child,
Speak My Word, be aware it is quick and powerful, stretch out your hand in the Name of the Lord Jesus who is forever with you. For I have not sent you into the world in weakness, impotent to accomplish that which My Spirit within you yearns to bring to pass. Nor have I sent you forth alone. I send you forth with My love, My Spirit and My mind, that is My presence in, with, and through you. Yes, My divine power, wisdom and knowledge accompany you to accomplish all that I desire to do. In and through you My hands stretch forth to reach those who are lost, who are hurting and who are broken, not with good intentions, but with power to make whole and transform their lives. For the work I have done in you, I shall now do through you that it might be said: "Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God." 2Cr 1:3-4
"Salvation Seen"
April 8, 2006
Mark 9:23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
My Child,
When the void was black and no light shined in the heavens, at the utterance of My word the darkness was filled with light. When the earth was void and with out form...aimless, I spoke and the heavens were filled with forms perfect in their orbit. When the seas were barren of life, I spoke and it teamed with all manner of life. My child what temptation causeth the to believe that anything is to difficult for Me. How oft I would have you know that My Words are creative forces which changed chaos into worlds. What power is like unto to Mine? Likewise, My Words, spoken from a doubt free heart will see shadows flee and light permeating in every manner of circumstance. I say, return to thy first works, return to thy questionless child like faith, leave the clouds of complexity behind and never look back. Be filled with My Words and let them light your path. Let the complexity melt before you as you renew your soul with songs of deliverance and the difficult paths shall be made straight before you. I have set no limits upon thy faith My child, and there is no limit upon My might. All things are possible to him that believeth. Tolerate nothing that limits your time in My Word, Rehearse it continually and watch the breath of life fill you with renewed vision and desire. What things seem to thee difficult, yea, even impossible, are as nothing in My sight. As it is written, Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways shall be made smooth; And all flesh shall see the salvation of God. Luke 3:5-6
"Look and be Changed"
April 7, 2006
2 Corinthians 3:18 "But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the Glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, as by the Spirit of the Lord."
My Children,
While many rise up in this hour to dance and play around golden calves of men's religion... Veiled with ministries of good works, self sufficient in a ministries of fading glory, who stand excusing some and accusing others, I am calling out a remnant people to go up to My holy hill. Yes, to go beyond the trappings of men's doctrines to find the face of revealed glory. Yes, I am calling a remnant of people into My presence to be changed into My image from observing one glorious revelation after another. It is My presence in your lives that distinguishes you My people, from all others, and I will not let My glory be veiled. For the ministry of righteousness is best seen in a sanctified Body of believers. Yes, those who are made perfect in love, those whose very lives are refined by beholding the Glory of the Lord.
In this revealing, you shall be changed into the same image by My Spirit. Yes, My people, and afterward I am calling you to walk with Me among Christians and sinners alike as My last hour witnesses... Yes, shining witnesses who by My presence convict those about them because of the radiance of My Glory which fadeth not.
Yes, I have called you My children to live in My presence, and testify against Sin, speaking forth righteousness through Christ and preparing the way for My soon return. Yes My people, to go forth proclaiming the message of My Kingdom and the forgiveness of all sin through Christ Jesus. This shall be witnessed as truth through your changed lives and made believable through My Spirit which dwelleth in you and shall be upon you. To many your lives will seem to be a message of condemnation and to others it will be a message of conviction which draweth them to the crimson flow that cleanses all who will come. My presence shall go with you; and because of My presence reflected in you, you shall become a demonstration to the world, convicting it of sin, righteousness, and judgment.
"Faith That Worketh By Love"
April 6, 2006
Gal 5:6 For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.
My Child,
The way that excels all is the way of love. If you are not walking in love
Even your gifts are open to misuse, the gaining of personal fame and hurt
Others instead of blessing them. It should be noted that as My Son
Ministered in the Spirit's power, in teaching, and healing, many times over
It is stated that He was "moved with compassion."This was a prelude to the
Exercise of power. For faith worketh by love. Divine love is the pathway
That the gifts of the Spirit move along. Love longs to meet the need and the
Gifts of power are the divine enabling to do so.
Note: If we do not walk in love, By default we will inevitably forget that we received the gift to minister To another in need and become bloated with pride and aware of the gift only In terms of the importance it bestows upon us in the eyes of others.
"The promises to the heritage of the Lord"
April 5, 2006
Psa 112:7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD. His heart [is] established, he shall not be afraid, until he see [his desire] upon his enemies.
Psa 118:5-8 I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, [and set me] in a large place. The LORD [is] on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me? The LORD taketh my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see [my desire] upon them that hate me. [It is] better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.
My Children,
I hear the enemy as he plots against you, I know all of his secret plans. I tell you that I see every pawn who moves in compliance with his plans. Yet, I remind you not to fear, for I am with you, and I am for you. Now I ask you, who can be against you with Me at your side? For no weapon or plan formed against you shall prosper and every tongue who speaks against you shall be silenced for this is the heritage of those who belong to me. I shall establish you My children, and you shall not be afraid. I shall set you in large places, and open places and you shall not fear. I will help you and your enemies shall be ashamed. Trust I say in the Lord your God, I will bring it to pass. I am your shield and your rear guard. I watch over My heritage and stretch forth My hand against those who curse you. I will bless those who bless you and wealth shall be in your house, says the Lord. The wicked will be infuriated when they see this. They will grind their teeth in anger; but the desire of the wicked man comes to nothing. Be of Good cheer and rejoice Mine Heritage, for these are My promises to those who fear Me, to those who do not trust in the arm of the flesh.
"Faith Is"
April 4, 2006
Psa 18:2-7 The LORD [is] my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, [and] my high tower. I will call upon the LORD, [who is worthy] to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies. The sorrows of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodly men made me afraid. The sorrows of hell compassed me about: the snares of death prevented me. In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, [even] into his ears. Then the earth shook and trembled; the foundations also of the hills moved and were shaken, because he was wroth.
Psa 18:17 He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from them which hated me: for they were too strong for me.
Beloved,
It is faith, when you believe I have heard your cry, that I am not delaying My promise, that that I am not ignoring your petition. I quietly began your miracle immediately when you prayed, and even now I am doing supernatural work on your behalf. Faith is truly believing in miracles, My miracles which are the marvelous progressive works I do in your lives.
"Abiding Presence"
April 3, 2006
My Child,
You will never call upon Me and find that I have left you. This is a deception of the evil one. I am always present, in all, through all, and by you all. I am with you always and ready to answer your faintest cry. Though the darkness taunts you, you are bound to Me forever.
When you neither see, hear, or feel Me, know My child that I am with you. Before time began I set my love upon you, because of who I am; if I ceased to love you I would cease to be. Do not let your heart be troubled that you will do something to cause Me to desert you or treat you with indifference.
My being with you is not controlled by your acts or behaviors as men falsely believe. No man may summon Me nor dismiss Me , for I am everywhere present. In my love I am free and beyond the manipulation by My children. My presence with you is not a reward for your good behavior but is continually poured upon you out of the sheer delight of My love for you. My Child, you are bound to Me forever. Now allow My word to abide mightily in your heart and rest.
"The Choice"
April 2, 2006
Act 26:22 Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come:
My Children,
I never made you to be coddled and kept from harsh situations, but to be My adult sons and Daughters who would fellowship with Me in ruling and reigning with Me in My universe. When I made man, I immediately placed him in a garden that had the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil in the midst. I warned man, that to eat of it would mean death, but then left man to make up his own mind what he would do about it. It was My choice to allow the devil into the garden to tempt Eve; and while he did so, I did not interrupt or contradict him. Eve had to make a free choice about Me on the basis of what I had already said. Yes, I forced man to face the uncomfortable fact that he was not an animal, but a person made in My image – not fully man until he had made a choice. Today, I ask My people to make choices in the same manner, knowing that which I have spoken, also knowing one's evil nature to submit themselves to Me with every decision. I will help you My children, but I force no man to keep that which works for His own good. The Choice remains yours.
"Disciples of Christ"
April 1, 2006
Luke 14:25-27 And there went great multitudes with him: and he turned, and said unto them, If any [man] come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple
My Child,
Taking up your cross represents your willingness to suffer because of your relationship with Me. As I have told you before, it will cost you to be My disciple. I have asked you to count the cost. Can you afford to follow Me? But can you afford not to follow Me? He who loves his life will lose it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it to eternal life. For you to follow Me, you must place Me above the closest human relationships, and oh yes, even above your own selfish desires. I am calling My people to make Me the preeminent reason for their existence. My Child, are you willing to suffer embarrassment, reproach, rejection, persecution and even possible death for my sake? If so, then you may be My disciple indeed. For whoever does not bear his cross and come after Me, cannot be My disciple. As it is written: "I am the Way, the Truth, the Life, the ONLY WAY to God the Father" (John. 14:6).
"Grace for the dark night of the soul"
March 31, 2006
Rest, My child, and cease struggling to be strong in your natural abilities! My grace is sufficient for all your days and will always be there beyond your ability to tell. My grace is My character extended to your natural realm. My grace is best seen when men reject you because of your stand for Me, and it begins with forgiveness while men are yet in their offense. My grace gives you the wisdom to be silent while men accuse or censure you, and My grace is felt as men attempt to stop your progress with their ideas of human Inspiration. My child, again I must tell you, that you must not attempt to control My grace. It is always the savor of My Spirit, unexpected and beyond your means of explaining. So allow My grace access and flow, that men may be confronted by My character and be found without excuse in the day of judgment. My child, do not look for the outer circumstances to change, but look for My grace that changes everything. The people and the circumstances that today cause you to tremble with fear and be distracted in anxiety now seen through the lens of My grace, lose their ability to make you panic. The things and people that overwhelmed you are no longer a concern, for My grace assures you that all is well with your own soul.
"Holy Protector"
March 30, 2006
Act 17:28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.
My beloved child,
Know that in every breath you take, My presence is within you and My eye is upon you. I cause all things to work together for your good wherever you are and whatever is transpiring in your life. My child, I am still your life and geography does not limit My hand from reaching down to you at any place and at any time. It is always in Me that you live and move and have your being. My light and My presence always surround you, no matter what life may toss your way. It is there in those dark moments that My love will lift you and embraces you, no matter what you are feeling to the contrary. Although you may feel limited and overwhelmed at times with your own weaknesses, know that My power is ever protecting you from all evil and is always available to draw courage and strength from. I am still the ever present help in your times of need.
"March 25-April 2, 2006 on Vacation"
"The Wine Press"
March 24, 2006
This morning I rose with this song in My heart:
Mine eyes have seen the glory
Of the coming of the Lord;
He is trampling out the vintage
Where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning
Of His terrible swift sword;
His truth is marching on.
Then the Lord gave me these scriptures:
Rev 14:8-12 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive [his] mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. Here is the patience of the saints: here [are] they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
Then the Sovereign Lord spoke these words to Me:
My Children,
The harvest is nearing and the evil of the earth is as the grape in it's full season. I have heard the moaning of the Saints, saith the Sovereign Lord. The cries of My people saying: "enough is enough," and even My angels speak to me that the earth is filled with fornication and violence and My people are persecuted because of their faith. But, I say the season of thrusting in of the sickle draws nigh, when I shall come in the white clouds of The Shekinah, and I shall thrust in the sickle and reap. I shall separate My people from among the nations of the earth and yes, I shall cause the blood of evil men to flow for all their faithlessness and fornication. Yea, and multitudes shall perish in the outpouring of My wrath, saith the Lord. And I shall make men to drink their fill of the cup of My vindication and all the earth shall be persuaded that My Words are true. Yes great mourning shall ascend from the face of the earth as I vindicate you My people. You shall rule and reign with me in the Earth. You shall dwell with Me in that Holy city, Jerusalem. And yes, those that are without the city walls shall be suffer and be smitten in the valley of The Lord. Yes, kings and rulers shall come before Me and all men will be given their reward according to that which they have done. I tell you My people, draw nigh, for it is time to be filled with My Spirit, it is time to overcome through the power of My Word, and it is time to let your lights shine before men, for the day of My appearing is near. Be ready My people lo, I come quickly.
"Life More Abundantly"
March 23, 2006
Jhn 10:10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
My Children,
I have sent forth My Son to lay down His life in defense of My sheep, and through this gesture I have have clearly established before you that it is My will and My purpose to give you life more abundantly. Yet, I have also told you My children, that the hidden purpose of the evil one is only to kill, steal, and destroy. If by your faith in My Word your yes have been opened and you have turned from darkness to the light, and from the power of Satan unto Me, then you have received forgiveness of your sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in My Son Jesus. Yet again I say to you, I will come to all whose hearts delight in Me and love My Word, to all who are victorious through your faith, you shall inherit all things, for all is mine to give, and I will be your God, and you will be my children. To those who keep their faith I give this promise I will remove all of your sorrows, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. For the old world and its evils will soon be gone forever.
"Fountain of the water of life "
March 22, 2006
Rev 21:6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
My Children,
Come to Me and drink from the fountain of the water of life and ye shall live. For all things were finished from the foundations of the earth and now ye shall drink from the rock which was smitten and the well which I have dug. Your eyes shall soon be opened and ye shall see the architect of the ages placing the final chapters into motion. In these days My Children, though they be difficult and dry, I am drawing the thirsty to My well again to drink. These days of dryness are necessary that I may conclude all things and give to you who drink the inheritance which I foretold. Yet in this wilderness shall My streams again flow from the rock, and those which find it shall find life, but those who do not shall perish.
"The Bread of Life"
March 21, 2006
Jhn 6:48 I am that bread of life.
My Children,
Is it so difficult for you to see and perceive that life comes through the receiving of My Word and cleansing by the hearing of it. Those who present their own ideas are looking for praise for themselves, but those who seek to honor the one who sent them are good and genuine.
All spiritual food was represented by the table I have spread. My Life, My Body and My blood are the food and drink upon this table that sustaineth thee. He that receiveth this food receiveth Me and the Father will receive Him. For I am the bread of life, and I am the every Word that proceedeth from the mouth of God. I live by the power of the living Father who hath sent me; in the same way, those who partake of me will live because of me. It is the Spirit who gives eternal life. Human effort will accomplish nothing. Therefore rest in Me and partake of Me and the very words I have spoken to you will become your spirit and your life. Come now partake again of the bread of life, though this table is spread in a treacherous world of those who despise it's bread. As oft as you do eat this bread and drink this cup, it will remind you of that which I have done for you, building your hope and faith and in this you are made pleasing and acceptable to the Father.
"The Well Spring of Life"
March 20, 2006
Mat 16:24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
My Children,
Have you lost your way? Your progress will return to you as you set to heart to follow those things which I have spoken. Many are called, but those who are chosen presume not to move without Me. I remind you am the reason for all ministry, I direct all works. I am also the only pathway to the Father. No man can come to the Father except by Me. Many have started out with this knowledge, knowing that the world is mine in all of it's fullness, yet they find themselves sinking in the waves of a desire to please me. Having fixed their gaze on the wave of works for acceptance they soon find their works are offered to Me as was the fruit of Cain! Do not be angry, I tell you again, My Father receives not the work of any man, but He has received My completed work and accepts all of those who believe in that work. The will of the Father is to believe! Ministry My children must issue forth from your fellowship with Me. That is what I call all men to do... Fellowship and be witnesses for Me. Tell others of our precious time together, remind them of what I have said to you. I am the wellspring of life. Return I say to your roots. Find the necessary work of maintaining close ties with Me, and the spring of My life will refresh you just as it always has.
"Divine Restraint"
March 18, 2006
Isa 30:20-21 And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity, and the water of affliction, yet shall not thy teachers be removed into a corner any more, but thine eyes shall see thy teachers, And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, "This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left."
My Child,
I am not procrastinating in coming to your aid, I have not put off answering your heart cries. But truly I cannot work in your life and situation, until all of your natural inclinations and hopes have been exhausted. Like any father, I desire to come immediately and aid My children in their perils. But beloved, with divine restraint I wait to hear the faith filled prayers of invitation, and while you are still praying I am dispatching My angels with intervening solutions.
But today My Omniscient gaze peers deep into the recesses of your questioning heart to expose to you the hindering elements of an active faith. My eyes see through your closed doors, your social disguises, and all the layers of human reasoning. I am present each time your efforts fail. I see you as you are absorbed with periods of self-accusation, of reproaching and censoring yourself. I hear your self debasing words, and I sense your feelings of unworthiness. Beloved, must I remind you again that My love for you and My help is not merited?
I love you without limit, and I find no joy in seeing you distressed by your natural circumstances. When you have no where else to turn, no one else to hope in, only then do you seek to hear My Sovereign whispers. But your failures are teaching you to turn your head skyward and it is your prayers which will open your eyes to My willingness to emancipate you and help you. Yes, just at the moment your weakened arms stretch upward, you will sense My comforting touch ready and waiting to lift you from your darkest despair.
My child, teach your heart to be still, to know that I am am ever with you, arranging, molding, and changing all things according to My perfect will. Reactivate your childlike faith with a knowledge and assurance that I am continually perfecting all that concerns you. My mercies will never run out, My provisions will never fail, and I will never stop pursuing you. Each time you stop to listen, you will hear My voice reminding you that I am here, and I am leading you on toward My glory and perfection.
"Grace your Daily Bread"
March 17, 2006
Hbr 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
My child,
My grace is your daily bread, not your weekly ration. Today you have the supply of strength and the grace for this hour and no more. You do not yet have the strength, the grace supply, and the wisdom for the problems of tomorrow. But you have My covenant word of promise, so let your faith rest in it, yes, in the confidence that at the dawning of the new day, the needed grace will be there.
My provision is always in abundance and is given to you to be spent in, and to fill to overflowing, the moment you are now living in. You are to enjoy it to the full with the confidence that it will be followed by a new abundance of grace uniquely fitted to the next minute.
It is not a sin to experience fleeting feelings of anxiety, at the absence of tomorrow’s supply, but be quick to return to your true center of trust in My covenant word of promise.
My child learn to walk carefree and confident in My grace that always is, and in the certainty that I will be there when the next hour arrives giving you the grace to handle whatever it brings to you.
"The Gift"
March 16, 2006
Lam 3:18-24 And I said, My strength and my hope is perished from the LORD: Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall. My soul hath them still in remembrance, and is humbled in me. This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The LORD is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.
My child,
Each new day is a pristine gift, complete with brand new mercies, opportunities, and a clean slate upon which we will compose together a new chapter in your life. You are never to define your days in terms of your past; for each one of them will be unique. Your past is simply a previous chapter and should never be a forecast of how this day will present itself to you.
You may remember with thanksgiving the victories and achievements of the past, but beware lest ye dwell on them and limit your potential and mar the glorious future that I have prepared for you. No, My child, I am not limited as though I should cause you to repeat a single experience, for this would surely limit My purpose and hinder your progress.
But, I am He who weaves your worst mistakes into My glorious purpose; I am He who takes the evil plans of others against you, and makes them part of My perfect plan of love. I take the strength and comfort I give you in your greatest pain, and I make it droplets in the river of life that flows from you to others! Yes, your yesterdays are to you as wisdom, understanding and comfort to those who need the life I have given you.
My child, again I have given you the gift of this moment, yes even the gift of this day, so walk in it with confidence that I am ever with you. I am with you to share your hopes, and to help you fulfill your dreams. Know with assurance that I will withhold no good thing from you and My promises to you are ever "Yea and Amen."
"Ministry of Blessings Revealed"
March 15, 2006
Mat 5:44-46 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? Do not even the publicans the same?
My Child,
Hear My voice, and give no heed to the voice of a stranger. For My paths are straight, and they are narrow. I am guiding thee and ye need not look to man for thy direction greater conquest or blessing. I have blessed you , in company with all My people, enlightening you to see that you are My beloved child in whom I delight. I have filled you with My Spirit and My Spirit communicates to you My love, My peace, and My joy. By My Spirit I have revealed to you the glories that the prophets longed to know, to have the eyes to see it and the ears to hear it.
I have blessed you in your body dwelling in every cell, restoring to you life and health. My blessing reaches into your material world as well. I go before you in all your dealings, and I grant you wisdom in all that you lay your hand to do. My child, My blessing is the source of your joy and strength. I have encircled you like a protective mantle and the strong currents of My joy flow through you, and out from you, radiating from the inner fullness My blessings.
Therefore I say to you, increase this joy, this blessing, by being available to My Spirit at all times. For My Spirit will use you as an instrument of joy to bring the awareness of My Presence wherever you go. Let your inner prayer always be calling forth My blessing upon the people I place in your path. My child, It is not necessary to lay hands upon someone in order to transmit a spiritual blessing. My life flow can be added to others even through your prayers, though they be not uttered or heard. Restrict not the flowing of this life to others, even to those who curse you and hate you and you will multiply thine own joy, and thine own blessing one hundred fold.
"The Favor Of The Lord"
March 14, 2006
1Pe 1:8-10 Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see [him] not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, [even] the salvation of your souls. Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:
My child,
My favor attends you day after day, you are the recipient of all My blessings and your joy is the overflow. My blessing is not something that is separate from Me; My blessing is My Presence with you, filling your life.
Before you begin your day, I am there, waiting to be to you all the strength and wisdom that you will need. I am there when you awaken, delighting in you, sharing every moment of your day at the deepest level of your being. I am always there before you need Me; your needs and problems are the empty containers that are My opportunity to reveal My glory. And when the day is done I am your protector while you sleep.
Your future is radiant with My blessing. Look not with fear and apprehension into tomorrow, for I am already filling all your future with favor, preparing for you pathways of joy in which to glorify My Name.
"The deceived"
March 13, 2006
Jhn 14:25-26 These things have I spoken unto you, being [yet] present with you. But the Comforter, [which is] the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
How many times have you heard, "IF I COULD JUST GET A WORD FROM THE LORD"?
Tell My servants,
The poor, deluded fool feeds on ashes. He is trusting something that can give him no help at all. Yet he cannot bring himself to ask, "Is this thing, this idol that I'm holding in my hand, a lie?" Isa 44:20 I tell you there are religious forms which deny Me. Ye, even forms which turn many away from the truth which I have spoken and cause the faith of many to fail and many to believe a lie.
But The Lord, your Redeemer and Creator, says:
"I am the Lord, who made all things. I alone stretched out the heavens. By myself I made the earth and everything in it. I Am the one who exposes the false prophets as liars by causing events to happen that are contrary to their predictions. I cause wise people to give bad advice, thus proving them to be fools. But I carry out the predictions of my prophets. Isa 44:25-26 For My prophets have stood to boldly proclaim an unchangeable word among the many tides of demonically inspired ideas.
The Sovereign Lord says: Challenge the thoughts of those who seek to change My church with ideas, reforms, moves, and words which dilute faith in God through Christ Jesus alone, My people do not err. My Words change not and those who have received My Spirit have received a changeless Spirit. Upon this foundation I have establish My Church. Upon this foundation I have warned you to be careful how you build upon it. 1Cr 3:11
My people, I remind you again, that faith cometh by the hearing of My Word! Rom 10:17 And also without faith it is impossible to please Me! Hbr 11:6 Many messages are spoken to maneuver My people against that which I have already spoken to you. Yet ,I say to you who have received My Word have also received the Spirit of Truth. Be not deceived, stand upon that which I have spoken and turn not aside. For many are the deceived who know not that they are deceived.
As it is written: But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. Gal 1:8
"For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Let not your false prophets and your diviners who are in your midst deceive you; pay no attention and attach no significance to your dreams which you dream or to theirs, For they prophesy falsely to you in My name. I have not sent them, says the Lord." (Jeremiah 29:8, 9)
"Not who am I? But here am I!"
March 12, 2006
Exd 3:10 Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of Israel out of Egypt. And Moses said unto God, Who am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt?
Exd 3:13 And Moses said unto God, Behold, [when] I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What [is] his name? What shall I say unto them? And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
Jhn 15:16 Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and [that] your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.
My Children,
I have called many men who question, "Who am I to speak for you Lord," but few have said Here am I send Me. Yet, I tell you, it matters little who the vessels are, any more than which glass will contain your next drink of water. Have I not told you that I came here not to be served but to serve others? So shall it be with My elect, and, has it not been said to you that the servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him? I remind ye all, That the vessel is the messenger, but till the Message is poured out He remains but a lowly cup. Know that in this world kings are tyrants, and officials lord it over the people beneath them. But among you it should not be so. Whoever desires to be a leader among you must be a servant to all.
"Human Strength is our Spiritual Weakness"
March 11,2006
1Jo 3:14 We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not [his] brother abideth in death.
My child,
Your human strength is flesh and is a lie. However strong your human strength may appear it has a point where it collapses into weakness.You call upon Me when confronted with those you find it humanly impossible to love. But others you love with the passion and delight of human love. But however strong that love is today it too has a point where it will fail.
My glory cannot be seen in any area where you are trusting in your natural ability and strength for where you are seen as strong, you receive the praise. Bring to the cross your known and proven weakness that you may partake of My resurrection strength. But also bring to death on the cross what you perceive to be your strengths and then you will know your human strength filled with resurrection life. Take to the cross your best and most beautiful human love that it may rise in the power of My infinite love.
"I Desire your fellowship and friendship more than your service!"
March 10, 2006
Hbr 4:10-11 For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
Jhn 15:15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.
My Friend,
You are consumed with the awareness of being in My service. You are worn out with the busyness of serving Me. You have been concerned to a fault that you will fail to be used by Me to the fullest extent. My child, do not forget Me in your whirlwind of attempts to do My will. I desire your fellowship and friendship more than your service. I want you to know My priority, which is delighting in you as you rest in My love.
You are most effective when you are doing your acts of service out of love, and when you delight in Me, and the love for the people you minister to. Your acceptable service is from your rest in Me, not your active anxiety to please Me. I use you, not when you are thinking about being used, but when you are rejoicing in My love, at peace simply being in Christ. Focus on the fellowship you and I have, and leave your being used to Me.
When you need to know, I will surprise you by letting you know a little of how I have used you. By that time it will be in the past and will not draw you away from the focus of our fellowship together. Rest in Me.
"Entertaining Angels Unaware"
March 9, 2006
Hbr 13:2 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
My Children,
Do not be fascinated with your mountain top experiences. They are a necessary part of your life, but they are not the place of spiritual growth and maturity. Such rich experiences come at the end of a period of spiritual growth, and they set you on your way into the next leg of the journey.
Your growth occurs in the dark and arduous places when your faith rests not in your experience but in Me alone. For it is there that I am hidden, waiting to reveal Myself to you in the routine and ordinary events each day. I am coming to you in the dull people you meet every day, It is here you will find My improbable disguise, watching and listening to your heart responses to those who lack feeling or perception.
Do not look at your day as an interruption to communing with Me, but the place where I meet with you in everything that happens, and with every person you encounter. Behold your day with excitement and anticipation knowing I am hidden, waiting to be discovered in its every moment.
"This is what the Sovereign Lord says!"
March 8, 2006
Amo 8:11-12 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD: And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find it.
Man of God,
Go ,shut yourself up in your house, go not out among the people, but give thyself to prayer and fasting. Whenever I give you a message, I will loosen your tongue and let you speak. Then you will say to them, "This is what the Sovereign Lord says!' Some among the people will listen, but many will ignore you, for they are but rebels, constantly contending with My Word and persecuting My holy prophets.
Oh, how blind My Church has become, and even some of the choicest shepherds are now blind guides leading multitudes in the pathway of damnation. Many of My people who once believed in sacrificial living and holiness, have now cast off restraint to live lasciviously, yes, corrupted by their disregard for truth. Yes,multitudes are now completely engaged in materialism, and unbridled personal desires, intolerant of the holy life for which they were created.
Man of God tell those who rebel, I am about call them to account for all their repugnant behaviors. If they do not hear and if they do not repent, I will shut their eyes as I did the inhabitants of Sodom and I will dry up their wells of comfort. They will look in vain for a true vision from My prophets, but will not be able to see. I will turn them over to a lie and they will not comprehend the teaching of truth from My priests, and they will receive no counsel from My counselors, for they have delighted in defiled bread and have polluted My Sanctuary with their unbelief.
But Man of God, tell those who love and obey My Word, that they will not be destroyed nor will they be decieved. The devil will not have the upper hand. For I have said, “No matter how bruised you may feel, I will not allow you to be broken. I won't let your fire go out. My Spirit Winds are now beginning to blow on the the smoldering embers, and your flame for me will come back again.” Rise up and trust! For the time has come to rekindle your faith, for I am with you. I will give you the bread of life and the strength to endure.
But thou O Man of God have My Words, yes, thou hast My promises. And My promises are to all those who will believe and to those who will do the will of The Father. Yes, My promises are yea and amen to them. Therefore, tell My people that My Word changeth not. Tell them in the morning to lift their heart in song, and in the evening let their request be made known, for I the Sovereign Lord will feed them and they shall never perish.
March 6 & 7 Sabbatical/Prayer
"Warn The Wicked & Deliver Thy Soul
March 5, 2006
Preacher,
I have set thee as a watchman unto the house of the Lord ; therefore thou shalt hear the words, and warn them for me. When I say unto the wicked thou shalt surely die; if thou doest not speak to warn the wicked from his way, that wicked man shall die in his sin; but his blood will I require at thine hand. “Nevertheless, if thou warn the wicked of his way to turn from sin; if he do not turn from his way, he shall die in his sin; but thou hast delivered thy soul." Again I say, as a preacher of My Word, warn the wicked, or the I will hold thee responsible for their blood.
"I am your only oasis"
March 4, 2006
Psa 121:3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord is thy keeper: the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand.
My child,
It has been said “the heart wants, what the heart wants.” But I say“ The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure.” (Jeremiah 17:9) Your fears can only be of the past or future! These My child, do not presently exist. Your mind is never still and you're constantly remembering the past and projecting it into the future, constantly back and forth like a pendulum. This is what causes all of your miseries.
In the midst of these exhausting thoughts, you must learn to continually come to Me. As you cast your cares upon My shoulders, I will give you the needed rest. For you have wasted much energy wrestling to change things in the power of your flesh and rebuking an unseen enemy when you fail.
Cease from such futile labor and be still. Cease from your concentration on the difficulties and be present to Me. Invoke My name. I am ever present for you; but you must learn to be present to Me. In My presence you will find peace beyond your comprehension and the fullness of joy. I will give you direction and set your options before you.
I will be the comforter you need as you come to me with your list of needs, but I tell you again that on this path you have invited other guest. "Your memories of many painful events, the echoes of past failures. I watch as you war to change things in your own strength and your own intellect, yes even as you try to mold circumstances to fit your thoughts.
My child, your own thoughts are what paralyze you with fear, you have become indecisive under their shadows. I know your listless thoughts of "what if's". Your ways My beloved are not hidden from Me, I will never under any circumstances leave you to your own devices nor forsake you in your struggles. In this desert, I am your only oasis.
But My child, as you through faith turn again to me in hopeful prayer, I will come to you, I will lift your many burdens. Yes, I will feed you and give you drink, I will lead you, I will protect you and I will guide you. Therefore, beloved child , come to Me. I will give you courage for the great sorrows of life, and patience for the small ones. And when you have laboriously accomplished your daily tasks, you will sleep in peace knowing I am ever awake and I am ever caring for you. You are never alone.
"My Way, My Righteousness, My Kingdom"
March 3, 2006
Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? Or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. 2Cr 6:14-18
My Children,
I have promised you peace, but not as the world understands peace. My peace is the tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ; a soul in which the righteous in Christ Jesus fear nothing of My judgment, and a soul content with whatever earthly blessing is derived by My hand.
I have also promised divine protection, but these promises are to those who understand and obey My Spirit from the heart. I have promised to garrison the heart and mind of those willing to shut out the soul-destroying influences of the world. Phil 4:7-8 Yet these promises are only to those who seek My righteousness and are willing to seek those things which are above. I will not withhold those things which will bless, but I desire to protect My people from that which would destroy.
Therefore, I say to thee, make no provision for the flesh or friendship unrighteousness. Do not sit at the table of the scornful or eat the bread of wicked men. If you pursue evil you will surely find it. Now I say to you , obey my voice according to that which I command thee. Set no detestable thing before your eyes, and turn from your wicked deeds. Banish from your minds the very thought of doing wrong! Turn to Me that I may have mercy on you. Yes, turn to Me, for I will abundantly pardon you. Long after purity and I will give you divine help to stand against that which otherwise would overpower you.
It was for this cause I gave myself for you, that I might redeem you from all iniquity, and purify unto myself a peculiar people, a people zealous of good works. Happy is he that followeth in the footsteps of His Lord. For he shall obtain righteousness and peace and in so doing shall find His seat in My Kingdom and among My people, sayeth the Lord.
"Conquering the Flesh"
March 2, 2006
Gal 5:16-17 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
My Children,
It is not your knowledge of My word or your religious intentions that will cause you to conquer your flesh, but it is as you walk in obedience to My Spirit. Walking in My Spirit requires time in My Word for your thinking to be transformed and as you submit in your love toward Me, yourselves, and others the darkness will flee.
I tell you My children, your flesh is constantly placing a demand upon your life, but when your walk out your obedience to My Word, you walk in the Spirit and your flesh is overpowered. All of your striving to make your flesh obey you is not going to make it happen. For flesh hath no power to command flesh.
Therefore, you must have your mind renewed and your thinking transformed if ever this darkness is to be conquered. But I say, when your thinking is renewed in righteousness and Spiritual submission occurs, you shall not fulfill the desires of your evil nature. As your flesh is ruled by My Spirit there will be no thoughts of self condemnation, no regrets, nor remorse, for walking contrary to My Word. Again I say, "Walk ye in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the desires of the flesh."
"Liberty and Love"
March 1, 2006
Gal 5:13-15 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only [use] not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.For all the law is fulfilled in one word, [even] in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.
My Child,
Beware of letting thy thoughts reign. For in them many offenses lurk at thy door. I came to set you free, but you must remain in My word to keep thy flesh under due and proper control. I tell you unrestrained toughts will bring you to anger and anger fulfilleth not righteousness.
Therefore, be slow to speak, quick to hear, and slow to anger. Unbridled anger will cause thee to lose your freedom and to become the prisoner of much fleshly thinking. Hatred is the fruit of one's anger and it maketh thee to lay down thy righteousness, but love is the fruit of the Spirit and causeth the to fulfill the law of Righteousness.
Having said this My child, this is not a challenge for you to accomplish the least thing in the power of the flesh, for this is surely impossible. But My child in submission to My Spirit, it is possible to be angry and sin not. Guard your words carefully and you will guard your liberty. As you garrison your thoughts through meditation on and submission to My Word you will maintain your freedom and your joy will be full.
"Divine Presence...Radiant path"
February 28, 2006
Psa 119:105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
My child,
Take My hand, and I will lead you out of the valley. Darkness and shadows are behind you, but My light and radience are ahead. Know that wherever you are and whatever the circumstance which unfolds before you, in that moment I am your life, in Me you live and move and have your being. Know that the light of My presence surrounds you, however impenetrable the darkness may seem.
It is in such times that My love engulfs you no matter what feelings you may have to the contrary. Although you may feel overwhelmed with weakness, know My child, that it is in that moment My power is protecting you from all evil and is yours to draw sustenance and strength from.
My beloved child, know that in every breath you take My presence is with you and My eye is upon you delighting in you to do you good. There is a rest and a joy for those who call upon Me, listen for My voice, and follow on in obedience. Lean on Me and trust Me, you will find Me strong and faithful. Therefore stretch forth your hand in faith, take your next step in confidence. I will move ahead of you and clear your path. I will make a way where there is no way beloved.
"Identity & Purpose"
February 27, 2006
Psa 139:13-16 For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother's womb.
I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well. My frame was not hidden from You,
When I was made in secret, And skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, The days fashioned for me, When as yet there were none of them.
"My child,
You have been tossed on the raging sea of life. You have found yourself sinking in your confusion to become what others think or expect of you. You have tried to break free and find your own true identity, to assert who you are. But all of your attempts were dead ends and would soon be aborted in despair. Ye are as an open book before Me. Your ways are not hidden.
You have looked to those you admire and sought to be like them, hoping that their strong identity might become yours by association. But I did not make you an inferior copy of them! Seek no longer to depreciate your value in such a meaningless effort. You are My unique child made and fashioned by My hands. I created you to carry My glory in life through your uniqueness.
You say, "you do not know who you are any more.” My child, I know you, I have called you by name! For you, I suffered and died. I am the Good Shepherd, coming to you in the barrenness of all human effort. I come to announce to you, that in Me and through Me, you shall find your true identity and purpose. I know where you are My child, and who you are! I know where you belong, even when you do not.
My beloved child, your identity is not in others, whether their curses on your life or the hopeless ideals for you. Your identity is in Me. No one else may ever truly know you, but I know you and call you by name. Child of My delight, it was I who fashioned you in the womb, and I shed My blood upon the cross for you.
Now turn away from seeking what others may say concerning you, and turn to Me in full delight. Bask in My presence. For your identity is not here or there, in this person or that pursuit... But in Me!. My child, you are not lost in a mass of nameless humanity as you perceive, for I have found you. Now as you rest and delight in Me, so shall your true identity be made known to you, and you shall impact those to whom I send you. You do not have to be other than that which I created you to be nor do that which I have not ordained. Your only obligation is to glorify My name in all your hands find to do.
"The Secret of Abiding Love"
February 26, 2006
Jhn 15:10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
Beloved of My Father,
I became flesh that I might be your Brother. Yes, I came for all of mankind, but that means nothing to you until you understand that I came for you, to be your Brother. You are My family now, Royalty! I am sure this is overwhelming to you, because you cannot give yourself to very many persons, for your human love is limited, but My love is infinite. I love each one of My brothers with the same exclusive love. But, I came for you as if you were the only one who had My attention. I give Myself to you loving you with the fullness of My being as if you are even now the only person on earth.
I came for you beloved. I sought you out and joined you in your personal wilderness. I joined you when you were lost, and sat where you sat; I made your private hell, your darkness, and your fears My very own. I laid hold on the grief and sorrow that had been heaped upon you by family and friends, I made it all Mine. I took them so that they would never be yours again.
I took the Law that condemned you and perfectly kept it in My humanity, satisfying it in your place. I took your place as the Lawbreaker, and all the liens and judgments that the Law had against you were satisfied and swallowed up in Me. The Law has nothing against you any more than it does against Me. You are free from the lash of its whip and it's condemnation. And now My beloved, you are united to Me to walk in My Spirit, fulfilling all that the Law of love demanded by the power of My Spirit.
I have swallowed up death for you and you will never know its horror, but will one day pass from this life directly into My presence. Death now is a glorious passage, as angels escort you from your present life into My immediate presence. What you call death is a baptism into the fullness of the everlasting life.
Your body is now My dwelling place, we are joined as one in the Spirit. I am in you and you are in Me. I continue to live and love through you, continuing to do the will of My Father on earth, implementing My victory over the darkness. Rejoice in the fact that all of this I have accomplished for you! Join the celebration of the heavenlies, rejoice in My acceptance of you and in those things which I have laid up for you at your arrival.
"Defining Moments"
February 25, 2006
1Cr 13:11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
My Children,
Ever since the day man first sinned, he has blamed Me for his sin and all the hurts on earth. Many of My children still refuse to face the fact that I have demanded that they choose and be responsible for their choices.
I say, there are even some of you who protest, stating that I am unfair to the human race, believing I should get more involved and use My power to make people act in more loving ways. But I tell you I have chosen to create beings who have freedom to make eternal choices and stand responsible for those choices.
My Church has brought much worldly thinking into its theology. They present their to do lists to Me. They simply expect Me to do everything for them while they passively watch. Victory is seen as having attained the position where I keep them in environments where nothing can hurt them.apart from responsible choices.
Yes your assemblies are filled with eager saints all looking for the ultimate experience that will insure that their bad tempers, impatience and bitterness are taken out of them miraculously in a moment of time. I watch as they line up to be "prayed for” and go back for more to be sure it has taken.
Many of My children are waiting for Me to force them to choose the way of righteousness, yes, to force them to choose to do right. But this is a gospel that cannot be located within the Scriptures. When all has been said and done, you must all deal with your wrong attitudes and make right choices. This will be the defining moment when My people choose who they will serve and start accepting responsibility for their choices.
A life with no boundaries, no borders, no rules for restraint in your lives gives the flesh it's life through this wrong way of thinking. It is fleshly thinking that opposes My instructions and My will. Flesh will always choose a more comforting route and will seek to blame Me or My messengers when things go wrong. I tell you, even religious thoughts can run in error unless you return to My word and have you deeds and thoughts examined.
As it is written: The righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in those who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit. So righteousness is fulfilled, not by the flesh but by the Spirit, For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh (Rom 8:4-5) Therefore I say to you all, return to the light of My Word and have your deeds and thoughts examined.
"Instruction to Prophets"
February 24, 2006
Rom 12:1-2 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, [which is] your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what [is] that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
My Prophets,
You bear unique responsibilities in this world amidst the dissonance of men's beliefs. There are many voices clamoring to be heard in these days. But I say to you, My messengers, that you must wait in My presence, and hear only My voice. Then will I send you forth to deliver My messages to those for whom the word is intended. Beware of running before you have the full message.
I have given you this mandate, and it comes to you this hour with a unique burden as you fill this significant role in My kingdom work. The task of being My messengers comes at a high personal cost. Each of you must submit yourselves to a sacrificial life by setting your soul through a deliberate choice of your will, to daily pursue routine times for worship, for praying in the Spirit, and for obeying Me with dispatch. Each assignment must be faithfully executed just as I have commanded you. Let nothing turn your face from the closet of prayer until you have heard all I have to say.
Each day from this point forward will be critical in the preparation of My people for My return. My messengers, I expect you to continue your assigned post and personal ministries as well. Yes, I will surely keep you from harm as you venture forth , and you shall know no fear. I will guide you in wisdom and in prudent judgment. You must continue to walk in the Spirit at all times, and in so doing keep thyself from being entangled in the things of the flesh. Keep yourselves in a state of personal readiness for the hour is late.
"A Voice For The Lord"
February 23, 2006
My Child,
Be sensitive to My voice as an overburdened world cries out this hour. I need those who have seen My faithfulness and know My sufficiency in their everyday life. I need voices which have found Me a capable burden bearer. You will now speak comfort to those in need, for you will comfort with the comfort you have yourselves received. Now is the time to move forward, now is the time to advance My kingdom. Take with thee the Word of reconciliation and mercy. It shall be as water to the thirsty for those who face adversity. I am a deliverer! I change not. I will shape circumstances which will calm human storms. There is nothing to difficult for Me. As My Ambassadors, you shall know My presence in a greater way. You shall find My sovereign purpose removes honest doubt and brings needed strength to the hearer. Be sensitive to the needy as I sovereignly arrange your contacts today.
"God's Work our Confidence"
February 22, 2006
My Child,
Be confident of this very thing, that He which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ appearing: And be not weary in well doing: for in due season you shall reap, if you faint not. Therefore, as you have therefore opportunity, do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.
"Looking For Things Above"
February 21, 2006
1Cr 1:30-31 God alone made it possible for you to be in Christ Jesus. For our benefit God made Christ to be wisdom itself. He is the one who made us acceptable to God. He made us pure and holy, and he gave himself to purchase our freedom. As the Scriptures say, "The person who wishes to boast should boast only of what the Lord has done."*
My Child,
Do not allow your thoughts to pursue curiosities. Do not faint nor forsake the way of the Spirit for the ways of the flesh. The spiritual man cannot be refreshed at the dry wells of human intellect. Only through prayer and meditation on My Word can your soul be daily sustained in righteousness and true holiness. You cannot learn this of men, but by My Spirit. I will teach you all things, says the Lord.
The riches of heaven are not the result of the best of carnal reasoning and the pursuit of knowledge is a futile search in that which is already known. For man does not possess the keys to the Kingdom. These are obtained and used as you spend time in My presence. I alone hold The keys to inner wisdom that will open the doors of your understanding. I alone give you wisdom above the wisdom of your enemies.
My Spirit within you, My child, is the source of all spiritual life, protection, and strength. Stay close to Me and yield to Me. Beware of that which lures you away. Spend more time with Me and give more heed to the things of the Spirit. Obedience will always open the ears to the mysteries of righteousness. The door is open, enter in.
"A New Spiritual Landscape Emerging"
February 20, 2006
2Sa 19:28 "For all my father's house were but dead men before my lord the king. Yet you set your servant among those who eat at your own table. Therefore what right have I still to cry out anymore to the king?"
The Lord says, to the wounded faithful!
"Mephibosheths... Do Not Complain! Though you were once wounded and forsaken, a new Spiritual landscape is emerging and you shall rise to eat at the table of the King."
Just as there has been a pouring forth of rain and a shifting in the earth's surface, old things are passing away, but there shall spring forth life from death, and a new emerging landscape wherein new inhabitants shall abound. So shall it be in The Spirit, says the Lord!
My provision and My favor is about to be poured out in abundance upon the households of those who have faithfully served me with whole hearted devotion. Many who have been tested as by fire shall come forth to accomplish even greater Kingdom purposes. Many of those who in former seasons rebelled against Me in self fulfilling lust, shall be removed from sight and remembered no more, says the Lord.
But those of you who have been in a season of obscurity, many of you will rise into positions of great responsibility and spiritual authority. Divine appointments will begin to open and new opportunities will occur at My Word, says the Lord.
And yes, you will have a heightened sense of vitality in Christ in this changing season. It will even be evidenced by a greater sense of physical well-being as well. Yes, you will by My Spirit be able to accomplish twice as much with half the time and energy, says the Lord.
Yet, I tell you My weary ones, you have not waited for this season in vain!, You shall enter My rest as the spiritual landscapes begin to shift. Therefore, I say unto you who have waited; to those who have continued to serve me with gladness and singleness of heart, you shall be a living testimonies that they who wait upon the Lord do renew their strength and shall rise up on wings of eagles! And yes, My faithful ones, you shall be made very glad and shall not be made ashamed. Therefore, rejoice in the Lord, for the season of change is upon you!
"A Call Goes Forth For Laborers"
February 19, 2006
My People,
I hear your cries for laborers, Who shall I send? Who listens when I call? Who among you will believe? But I say to you, if thou wilt believe, if thou wilt hear, thou shalt know the Lord thy God is in thy midst in a new way, even in a strange way. Behold I shall do a new work, and thou shalt see it as it shall spring forth. Even now, I say unto thee, a new thing shall I do in thy midst, saith God. I, the Lord have ordained thee for this purpose; yea, this ministry shall go to the ends of the earth as thou doest set thy heart to wholly follow Me.
For I am He that ordains My shepherds, and they shall go forth anointed in the power of the Holy Ghost and signs shall follow them that believe. Yes, and My children they will believe you as you go forth and tell them the words I have spoken unto you, and as you share what I have done for you.
My people, listen unto the voice of the Lord thy God, For I am calling out a people that I can use; yes, I am in thy midst. Harden not thy heart and provoke Me not with thine unbelief. I say unto thee, My people, arise and prepare, for I will send you forth and you shall speak the Words which I have placed within thee, and It shall accomplish that which I have ordained.
As I was with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, so will I be with thee. As I was with Peter and John, so I will be with thee. They went forth, even without silver or gold, but had the power of My Spirit within them. Did they not see the glory of God manifested? Did I not confirm My Word for them? Therefore, yield yourselves unto My Spirit and see what I will do, says the Lord.
For I have given thee power over all the powers of darkness and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Yes, believe the Word of the Lord thy God, for I Am in thy midst In new ways and even strange ways, says the Lord.
I tell you that the heart that is earnestly desirous to see Me move, shall behold Me in the midst of My people, and I shall give you encouragement from on high, and I shall strengthen you; I shall make My abode in you, and yes, I give thee the power to do exploits in My name, saith the Lord. Arise a go forth in My name!
Behold, souls shall be born into the Kingdom, yes thousands of souls, if thou wilt be obedient unto me and will do what thy heart tells thee to do this day, for I am walking through the land seeking my people, yes turning up the stones and I shall send you forth, you who call for laborers, and not only you, but all that hear my voice. Hearken unto me, saith God, for behold I shall do a quick work, yea a great and mighty work in the last days, saith the Lord.
"Never Changing God...Limitless Revelations of Grace"
February 18, 2006
Isa 43:18-19 Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, [and] rivers in the desert.
My Children,
I Am Life, ever new, ever fresh! My ways never grow tedious from familiarity. My blessings are not on automatic to be repeated time and time again in stale impersonal ways. They come flowing into your life, new every morning, unique to meet the demands of each day.
Therefore, beware of desiring old customs and manners! There is a very real danger that you will mistake religious formulas for Me and believe that you can control the flow of My grace with your conventional religious rules of thought! But I am Life, ever springing forth into unpredictable and unexpected newness. This characteristic of My grace draws you to trust in Me alone and not in a tasteless formula your flesh believes it has discovered.
My Children, as you face perplexing daily situations, look for Me to fill them with graces that are unique. Look not to the past as though your experiences will be the same. Previous experiences and opportunities will never be repeated identically. But I say again, look to Me, be alert, expect Me to reveal Myself through fresh impartation of My limitless grace. Every second is a new opportunity for Me to reveal more of My love to you in novel ways. I give you unchanging love uniquely revealed to fit every changing moment.
"Timely Provisions"
February 17, 2006
Phl 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
My Children,
You must learn to live in the eternal peace that is in Me. I am almighty; nothing is too difficult for Me, nothing impossible. I am all wise and all knowing, nothing is confusing to Me or beyond My comprehension. You are locked into time, and you are obsessed with the acquisition of something you believe you must have now, a goal that you must achieve immediately, a supply felt in your hands this minute and anxiety that My supply will be to late. My children that is not My peace, but the churning of an anxious heart. I am here in this moment, in you and with you, arranging all things that are happening, weaving them into My perfect will. What to you is sweating to the last minute, is to Me a leisurely walk toward the right moment for My purpose to come to harvest. I created and uphold all things by the word of My power. If I will that you shall have something, then you will have it. You will always have what I want you to have and you will have it when I say that it is time. When all is done you will delight and praise My wisdom that has taken every part of your life ... even the dark, miserable, and seeming pointless times, and woven them all together into a glorious tapestry of infinite good. I am continually at work in your life fitting together the apparently unrelated pieces to form a purpose that is infinitely good.
"My Grace is Sufficient For You"
February 16, 2006
2Cr 12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
“My children
It is time to walk forward, time to do My will, not because you perceive that you are ready for the task, or that you feel you have the supply to accomplish it, but walk forward in the fullness of faith, confident that I am your sufficiency and I am at work in you to accomplish every task according to My will. My children, look not in despair at your own weaknesses, emptiness, or lack, as those dependent upon their own ingenuity or skill to deliver themselves, for you acting out of a different reality. It is in your weakness and inadequacy that My strength is made manifest and this becomes your strength. Your apparent lack is the joyous signal for you to look with expectancy for My constant supply. Just as a man feels secure with the supply securely in his hands, so you must learn the same security in Me when there is no visible evidence of supply. Remember that the blessings and graces of yesterday, stand now as memorials that declare My unchanging faithfulness to you. As you pass through this present moment, know this, I will give you graces that perfectly fit the uniqueness of the situation and I will be your sufficient supply.
"Be Seated"
February 15, 2006
1Cr 4:20 For the kingdom of God [is] not in word, but in power.
My Children,
Do you yet see as mere men? Nothing of the Spirit is built in the strength of the flesh. It may seem as you look at My commandments that they are being addressed to your human strength. You may also hear them as a challenges to your flesh. No My child! I do not address My commands to the weakness of human flesh, nor yet ask anything of your human intellect. I am not your abuser demanding of you what I know you cannot do. For in and of yourself you can do nothing.
My commands are addressed to the new man of the heart, the seat of the soul which is indwelt by My Spirit . This is the hidden man of the heart which is born anew of My Spirit, infused with the life of My Son. As you live, and move, choosing direction from that union, My commands are not only possible, they become your delight. The yoke is made easy and the burden made light, because they are now borne on the shoulders of Christ who saves you. When you live from that center, the things which are impossible with men are made possible with the indwelling Spirit of God.
No, I will never command you to do anything that is beyond the limits of My Spirit within you. I am not testing your ability to impress Me with your human strength or intellect. For as it it written: that, that is flesh is flesh, and that ,that is Spirit is Spirit. They that are born of the Spirit speak they of the Spirit, but they that are born of the flesh ,speak they the ways and means of the world.
I am maturing your faith My children, so that you may rest more easily in My Spirit within you. In doing so, your flesh self will fade before the Spirit man that you are in Christ. When you learn to be seated with Christ, you may then ask anything and it will be done for you. Then all things become possible through Christ and not of yourselves. Rest now in My strength, My provision, and My ability, for this is Faith in God. Cease striving My children, and be seated at the right hand of My power!
"The Father's Care"
February 14, 2006
1Pe 5:6-7 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
My child,
I am your Father and you are the object of My providing love. Do not be anxious or allow your life to be filled with worry. I see your every thought and every longing; I know your joys and your sadness, the tears of joy and the tears of despair. I am intimately acquainted with every need that you have in every area of your life.
I know your entire life not because you tell me about it, but because I am immediately present within you. Your prayers do not inform Me of your situations in life; it is the expression of your will to include Me in the situations of your life. It is in these everyday matters that you must learn that I know you My child. It is here that you must abandon yourself to Me, sharing it all with Me, trusting me and following My lead. I am your Father who supplies all of your needs and blesses you in My time and My way. I know you and I am watching over you in love.
"Conforming Faith"
February 13, 2006
2Pe 1:3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
My children,
It is necessary in bringing you to maturity, that you do not always see Me or have proof that satisfies your senses. As it is written; the just must live by faith and not by sight. In My chosen delays, you may find yourselves in conflict between what you see and what My word declares to you. But be assured My children, My apparent withholding from you is My love preparing to give to you exceedingly more than you can ask or think.
Yes, I will give to you what you are asking, but along with it, something infinitely greater... a rest and a trust in me regardless of what you see or do not see around you. In order to develop this greater trust in Me, I must lead you through times when there is no visible means of support and no arm of the flesh on which to lean.
It is these times that you will either live by the joyful expectancy of knowing I will keep My covenant word, or you will live in unbelief with an anxious despair that expects Me to let you down. Therefore, there must be a spiritual renewal of your thoughts and attitudes, and this will only come as you choose to obey and submit to Me when your very existence rest on a Word which no one else believes because of prevailing circumstances.
Beloved, My love for you cannot fail, it holds in it a covenant commitment that includes not only the meeting of all your material needs, but also goes far beyond that to conform you to the image of My Son.
For this reason you can no longer walk according to your feelings or trust your human senses. In these days you must learn to lean only on My Word. It is here that My Spirit will teach you to trust My word and nothing else. It is then that you will grow and get beyond the knowledge of My hand of provision and you will know My heart of love for you.
So be at rest My children, for soon I will bring you through this time of drought and I will supply all of your needs according to My riches. But again I say, it will be in My time and in My way. Do not fear, for My time and My way of meeting your physical and material needs must first achieve My highest purpose, that of conforming and maturing you as Children of God.
"Real Grace"
February 12, 2006
2Cr 12:9-10 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.
My Child,
The unbeliever cannot look at the future without despairing. Life has become the work of their own hands and many failures are assured along such a pathway. Hope escapes them as they look upon their mortal limitations and failings in a search to become the self saved. Few come to see the need for a Savior while busily seeking to save themselves.
But My children be not as the unbeliever... look at your defeats and mistakes and turn to Me for forgiveness, mercy, and help. Allow room for the outworking of My Spirit who helps you with your many weaknesses. My children, know that I make of the dark holes of your lives the foundation for My most beautiful creations.
So I ask you, what shall you do when you as you face the very real mistakes of your lives? Will you acknowledge that you have sinned and ask for My forgiveness? Will you continue in faith knowing that I am working in every situation as it is? Will you choose to forget the events I have forgotten and press on to the bright future I have for you?
My children, your faith should rest in the good news, that your failures you are not terminal. I am not put off by your mistakes My children... I anticipate them! But, I tell you, I always stand ready to take you from where you are in life and bring you on into My perfect purpose.
My grace is sufficient for you, my strength is made perfect in your times of weakness. Despair not little Children, as those who have no hope! Although you do not see my hands about you, I am with you still. I have not forsaken you, but I am actively at work, preparing to turn your tragedies in to triumphs.
"A Season of Waiting With the Lord"
February 11, 2006
Isa 40:31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew [their] strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; [and] they shall walk, and not faint.
My children,
I call you to wait upon Me. You are battered and confused by the events that are whirling around you. Yes, you feel weary and weak, at times even exhausted. You are beating at doors that will not open and walking down roads that lead to nowhere, do not sink into frustration My children, but wait on Me.
Waiting on Me is not being passive; it is not being idle waiting for something to happen. Waiting on Me is an active expectancy in faith, it is looking with an intense gaze through the shroud of darkness. Yes, waiting to be the first to see what I am doing. It is the deliberate choice of being attentive to Me, that will result in the joining of My strength to your weakness, and brings My wisdom to your confusion.
Waiting is resting in My wisdom, knowing that it is not on your shoulders to make things happen; it is an anticipation of looking and resting in My covenant faithfulness. Waiting is giving praise to Me, that all I was... I am, and forever more shall be. All you can and must do is watch to see what I am doing, water it with your praise, thanksgiving, and prayers.
When you lose yourself in Me through meditation upon My Words, you walk and run in My strength and mount up with wings like an eagle; you walk and never run out of strength, for it is My divine strength that you are united with. As you rise on the mighty currents of My Spirit, you learn to enjoy heavenly places in Me, high above the problems here below.
No, waiting on me is not to ignore the earthly troubles. Waiting on Me is the shift that takes you from superficial activity and waisted energy for Me, to the service that arises from being at one with Me. I still do the works and apart from Me you can do nothing of value or service!
My children you are glistening with the sweat of much doing in My name. But I tell you It is time to be still, cease your striving, and be in Me. You delight in the satisfaction you have gained in your much activity, but I am calling you to the ultimate satisfaction... of being with Me in the Father's Service, and from that rest, to serve in the power of My life. From here on out, you will know you can do nothing apart from Me.
Come now weary children, in your helplessness rest and know that these days of pain and uncertainty are simply the birth pains which are bringing you into a new service that is rooted in My heart, My power, My life, and My love.”
"Accepting God's Love"
February 10, 2006
1Jo 4:18-19 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. We love him, because he first loved us.
My Children,
Walking in and with Me is not difficult, but it is truly the essence of simplicity. As you let your whole being respond to My love, you will learn to accept it more readily. For My love cannot be earned or deserved? Do not distress over your feelings of unworthiness, but focus on and delight in My constant love and care for you. As you do, I will gently cleanse and heal your wounds and I will release you from all of your self loathing.
My children, let your whole being become focused on My love for you. Let your time with Me become more and more sacred. Learn to surrender your objections and come often to receive My gentle care. The act of yielding to Me in the present moment, gives you full access to My presence and an opportunity for Me to be your answer in times of trouble.
Learning to set aside time with Me all through your day allows My work in your life to continue uninterrupted. As you turn your whole being toward Me, I will draw your attention away from the troubling circumstances and restore your peace. By doing this often you will find the healing and comfort you need. Your confidence in My loving care will grow and your fears will be dispelled. Make this a continual habit and watch your worlds change.
My Children, do not struggle or perform to please My love; just learn to accept it! It is in your acceptance alone that I delight. My love for you opens the door for you to come into a deeper sense of My presence. Your reception of My love allows Me to do the restorative work you need. Do not respond to My love with promises of great acts, for this I have not asked! But show your devotion by accepting My love into your heart. Your deepened devotion is the result of the work of My love and acts of devotion will come as a response. But My children, it is in the acceptance of My love that you find the key to all your victories.
One That Sticketh Closer Than A Brother"
February 9, 2006
Pro 18:24 A man [that hath] friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend [that] sticketh closer than a brother.
My child,
I have called, and you have answered, I have knocked, and you have opened unto Me, I have come to make My home in your heart. I am one with you in many ways, you may not realize. I do not simply behold you and walk with you, but I walk in you. I feel what you feel, I know your despair, I laugh with your joys, and I delight in your delights. I am a friend [that] sticketh closer than a brother.
My child there is no part of your life that I do not totally share. I dwell in you as the life of your life. I grieve when you grieve, and share intimately in all the joys of your life as well. Are you surprised to discover that I am now feeling in and with you? I am in every experience that you are passing through. I am the Resurrection and the Life! Do not feel guilt over your laughter and delight in the simple joys of life as if it is not part of My experience also. My child I laugh in you and share intimately in all your your joys.
Is it not written: "That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us: For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring." (Act 17:27-28)
I took to Myself your humanity, through My Spirit I received your eyes that I might weep your tears and feel your sorrow and suffering. I experience the full spectrum of your human emotions and fully enter into your pain as well as your joy. My child I have trod your path and know firsthand all that you are going through. I am not the remote spectator in your life but living it in you, experiencing it with you second by second.
I know and feel the onslaught of your temptations; I know and experience with you the fiery trials and the exhaustion they bring; I know from within you the loneliness you feel on this journey. Realize that I share and live in your pain, your confusion and all your joys. Yet, through it all, you are ever in My loving care.
My child, you acknowledge that I share your life when you share with Me all that burdens you. As your friend, I stand ready to bring you comfort, as you experience My love, it will dispel any fear. My joy shall swallow up your pain. Yes, and My counsel is wisdom above the wisdom of your enemies. It will guide you through all of your confusion. As you recognize My joy in you, you will renew your strength, you will walk with confidence through the dark and solitary places and confidently know that I never leave or forsake you. I will lead you on to victory. My Words to you precious child, are Yes, and Amen!
Hbr 4:15-16 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
"Feelings or Faith"
February 8, 2006
Eph 4:24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
My children,
It is faith,and not hypocrisy, to put away from you unloving and unkind acts, and to deliberately assume behaviors of love toward those you do not like or those who have hurt you. Forgiveness is never an act of feelings, but always the behavior that you must put on by choice, through faith. IT IS FAITH, when you choose to act against the feelings of your old nature, and put on acts of kindness to those I allow in your path.
Many times you are more aware of your own feelings than you are of Me. You wait for their permission to obey Me. They have dictated to you when you can behave like My child. They tell you when you can pray or take time to listen to Me. If your feelings do not give you enthusiastic permission to act, then you say that to obey Me would be hypocrisy, doing something that you do not feel like doing or that is against your true feelings in a given situation. It is not hypocrisy to throw off a behavior that is not compatible with your new nature in Christ.
Your feelings may disagree and protest strongly, but it is right to fling them from you, for these are of the old nature, the flesh. My children, it is time to adopt new behaviors consistent with My Spirit within you. It is never hypocrisy to assume a behavior at My command, even though your feelings do not agree and you feel awkward or uncomfortable with the new behavior. You should not live at the dictates of your feelings for that was the way of your old nature. But live according to My will. You do not abide in your feelings, but in My Son, says the Lord.
"Personal Work and Spiritual Blinders"
February 7, 2007
My Child,
I remember the day you came to Me and you saw all I had accomplished for you in My death and resurrection! Do you remember how you went to the church and announced in baptism that you were dead to the old life and now alive in Christ? That was a day of joy and laughter!
At your next meeting, you shared that you realized that "I am your love", That I am in you, and being Myself through you. My child, to really confront the Law, drives you to the wonder of Me living within you. Think of it, My child!I am living My life as you, doing My Father's will through you. and all I require is your submission. I will do the work!
In the early days of your Christian walk you spent all your time seeking the will of God. When the fact is, I am the will of God living in you. My child, you are beginning to be aware of what I am in you, and what I will for the world to be. As I took my abode in you, you began to see certain problems through My eyes., Others people saw other needs and problems as I made my abode within them. They did not share your vision for Intercession and restoration. Yet, I tell you, they also were seeing through My eyes.
I give to each spiritual blinders which cause the Father's will to be done through each of you in part, but through all of you as a whole. Do you remember the frustration you felt when you did not find others sharing the importance of your vision? Do you remember asking Me what is wrong with other people? ...Why can't they see? I tell you, My child that the gospel must be proclaimed to every nation and each of you share a part in the total work. To each is given a portion of faith and a task to perform according to the Father's will. Each of you have gifts differing to accomplish the task the Father is calling you to be involved with.
I remember you asking others for support for your vision, and the frustration you felt when they could not share in what I ask you to do. Do you remember the missionary who ask for support and you felt your ministry needs were greater? Do you remember the disaappointment when finances were given for the misionaries task and not for yours? He saw one problem, and you saw another!
The fact that you see, and are aware of a problem, is proof that I am in you reaching out to meet that need through you. If you do not see or feel a hurt in a certain area, it is because I have closed your eyes and you are not supposed to be involved. Speaking personally to you, I put your blinders on you so that all you could see is the need to bring the Church to maturity. It is not something you can pray about and walk away from. You have been commissioned, and it must be accomplished at any cost.
You also wanted involvement by every member of the church... and, of course you did not get it! The result was some hard feelings, and also an involvement by some who did not share the vision, but gave time and money out of a guilt feeling that you demanded for such a worthy cause.
My child, these are the real casualties of ignorance over the matter of intercession. My poor Children are constantly being told that they ought to get involved here and there, that they should be giving their money to this or that cause. That is all the sweat of legalism born out of ignorance.
You see, not everyone was supposed to be involved with everyone else’s vision, My child. You can pray for those you feel no excitement toward, and stand with them in their discouragement; but unless I join you to their vision, you cannot actually enter into what they are doing. This also is the will of the Father!
You ask, "What does one do now that you realize what is happening?" I can hear all your questions My child, but, I tell you to REST! This is a matter of knowing and trusting that My Father is achieving His purpose through you in part and that others are also called to a diversity of purposes, they shall fulfill the will of the Father in many other ways. Now in your understanding My child, you can truly say: "Blessed is He who cometh in the name of the Lord!" For this is the day that I have given you understanding of the Father's plan! Give thanks for those that I have joined with you in the ministry purposes which you can see and chide not another for not sharing your vision!
"The days of fulfillment"
February 6, 2006
Hbr 3:13-14 But exhort one another daily, while it is called Today; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end;
My Children,
Set it to heart that these are the days of fulfillment. These are the days that My Spirit shall reset your values, cleanse your souls, sanctify your bodies, and set apart a great army of those who shall carry the words of life to the nations.
I remind you to encourage each other and exhort each other daily, even so much the more as you see the day of the Lord approaching. Prepare your hearts that you may receive of Me impartation's that shall govern your destinies and empower you to walk blamelessly in My presence.
Watch therefore and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape the terrors that shall come upon the whole earth, and to stand before Me guiltless at My appearing. I tell you, I tarry for those that seek me with a pure heart and I will give strength to those who seek me continually.
Many are those who sit neglectful, loving the world and the things of the world. Many seek the life of the earth, but they do not prepare themselves for My return. But you, My Children, I call to live upright as witnesses before all men. I stand ready My people, to finish that which was started, and to complete that which concerns you.
I am committed to those of you who walk before Me with a perfect and responsive heart. Therefore, be confident in the knowledge that I protect and watch over all who are Mine. Yes, and I will work with you as you go forth as My spokesmen. Many signs will be given to confirm My words and My presence. For I have chosen you and I have separated you, that you may be living testimonies for my name’s sake, and you shall receive the crown of life which is laid up for you.
"Life and death, blessing and cursing"
February 5, 2006
Pro 18:20-21 A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; [and] with the increase of his lips shall he be filled. Death and life [are] in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.
My Children,
I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy children may live. Love the LORD thy God, and obey My voice, hold to Me: for I Am thy life, and the length of thy days.
Seek after godly counsel and contend for excellence in all your labors. For the wise shall walk in prosperity and his words shall establish his pathway. Yes, a wise man speaks life and plucketh not down the work of his labor. The mouth of the righteous man is a well spring of life that refreshes the perishing, and he shall see increase because he followeth not after counsel of the unrighteous. Have I not spoken that the fears of the wicked will all come true; so will the hopes of the godly. Again I say to all, I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life.
"Household Salvation"
February 4, 2006
Act 16:31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
Beloved,
I am the Good Shepherd and as such I will guide and protect you. I will also encompass your loved ones, I will draw them unto Me and they shall know that I am He that is mighty to save. Yes, they shall see the glory that is mine and they shall surrender to what I have set aside for them. They shall turn to Me, they shall look into the heavens, searching for the Me. Your heart will rejoice as they begin to sit at My feet, even in these last hours. I say continue to Intercede for those you love, keep their names ever before Me; lift them into My presence by your prayer. Let Me carry their burdens so that you may praise Me for the work that I am doing on your family's behalf. My word shall be declared and the Holy Spirit shall fall on those that you have given to Me. Do not fear, for they are in My care and My plans have not been set altered concerning them.
"I am with you"
February 3, 2006
Hbr 13:5 [Let your] conversation [be] without covetousness; [and be] content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
My Children,
I am with you; I am not merely alongside you; I am with you and united to you at the core of your being. You will never call upon Me and find that I have left you. I am with you always and answer your faintest cry. Though the darkness menace you, you are bound to Me forever. When you neither see nor hear or feel Me, know My child that I am with you and will never forsake you.
I have set my love upon you from before time because of who I am; if I ceased to love you I would cease to be. Do not let your heart be tormented with the fear that you will do something to cause Me to leave you or stand aloof treating you with indifference. You do not control My being with you by your behavior. You can neither summon Me nor dismiss Me by your works.
I am free in my love and beyond manipulation by My children. My presence with you is not a deserved reward for your good behavior but is continually poured upon you because of My love for you.
My child I am not merely alongside you; I am with you and united to you at the core of your being. I am your life. You are bound to Me forever. Let My word be engraved upon your heart and be at rest."
"I am the Lord, I change Not"
February 2, 2006
Psa 118:25 Save now, I beseech thee, O LORD: O LORD, I beseech thee, send now prosperity.
Mal 3:6 For I [am] the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.
My Children,
Have I not said to thee bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that [there shall] not [be room] enough [to receive it.
I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts. And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts.
"The Secret!"
February 1, 2006
Jer 13:23 Can an Ethiopian* change the color of his skin? Can a leopard take away its spots? Neither can you start doing good, for you always do evil. (NLT)
My people,
Have you forgotten My word? Can you now save yourselves through your own strength or intellect? To all who seek to save your lives, your hopes, your dreams, to all who boast of your own powers and who have forgotten Me, I say you are about to lose your lives.
I have ask that you to lay down your powers to rescue yourselves, and allow Me to save you from your calamities. I have ask you to cast every care upon Me for I take care of you! In letting go shall you see your miracles begin. There is but one who saveth thee! Faith in your flesh and in your intellect I abhor. This is foolishness! It is sin, sayeth the Lord!
I remind you that unless you are willing to give up your families, and lands, and follow Me you can not be my disciples. Unless a grain of wheat fall in the ground and die, it cannot produce wheat! True life will come in letting go! Miracles begin at the end of self preservation, in fact the key to all miracles is in letting go!
By hanging on to things ,you cannot express your love and trust that was at the base of all I have taught you. You cannot find life by acquiring and hanging on to things. Perhaps you have bought a false bill of goods by thinking that by acquiring and retaining that you can have freedom and Joy!
I tell you again, My servant Moses chose to let go of the royal palatial life and he became leader of all Israel, the woman of Zarephath chose to let go of her meal and oil and found complete provision for her family in a time of famine.
Shall I go on; My servant Abraham chose to let go of his son Isaac to show a nation how to believe and thus became the father of many nations. My daughter Hannah chose to give up her son Samuel only to provide a prophet for the nation of Israel. Yes, Jesus disciples chose to let go of their nets to become My Apostles, and a young lad gave up five loaves and two fishes to feed a multitude, and he received a basket of fragments for himself. I tell you that there are many examples of those who let go to receive.
Again I say, the secret of all miracles is to let go, only then can I fulfill My purpose! I remind you of Jonah who was unwilling to let go of his life and go Nineveh, and of the rich young ruler came to Christ and was unwilling to let go of his wealth. Why seek hardship when I have provided a better way? Again I ask, Can you now save yourselves through retaining things or demanding your way? Let Me have all that concerns thee, I Am Mighty to save! Commit everything to Me and life will begin!
